Matthew 28:16-20 | At the end of the book of Matthew, we find what every Christian knows to be called “The Great Commission”. It’s this commission from Jesus that is life-shaping! When we see what Christ has invited us into—disciples made all over the globe—it changes the way we do everything.

The vital sign of vital signs for disciples of Jesus is our joyful faithfulness to make more disciples of Jesus!

Mark 4:26-28 | What is the natural result of disciples making disciples? What happens when disciples of Jesus are committed to reproducing other disciples? Reproducing disciples will result in reproducing churches! When disciples multiply, churches multiply.

As we come to the end of our Vitals series, we begin to shift our attention not just on the health of the individual Jesus follower but the health of the gathering of Jesus followers- The Church. Part of being a healthy Jesus follower is participating in a local expression of the body of Christ. And part of what makes a healthy church is a multiplying church.

Romans 10:13-15 | We talk about what we love. We share what has thrilled our heart. We pass on to others things that have changed our life.

If we have a red-hot walk with Christ we have to tell others about it. In this message we look at the vital sign of gospel witness. Someone walking intimately with the Savior can't NOT tell other people about Him.

Let's stoke the fire for Jesus, our love for the lost, and our urgency to share the good news of what He has done.

1 Corinthians 12:1–31 | We love to watch when multiple people work together to accomplish something great. We watch teams, orchestras, choirs, and plays where every individual is doing their part, using their gifts, and fulfilling their role to be a piece of something much bigger than themselves.

The church is the most beautiful picture on the face of the earth in this regard. Each person in the church has gifts and roles given to them that must be used for the good of the whole. And what makes this more amazing than a sport or choir or orchestra or play? Each of our roles is given to us directly by the Spirit of God AND it means we get a role in building up the church which is taking the gospel to the ends of the earth to the glory of God. What could be more exciting to be a part of?

A healthy walk in Christ is one in which we are using the gifts given to us by God. This week, we look at the vital sign of spiritual gifts and ask: Do I know my gifts? Am I using my gifts? Have I experienced the joy and fulfillment of playing my part so that the church as a whole can thrive?

Ephesians 4:17–32 | The moment we are in Christ we are a new creation. We have a new identity, a new heart, and a brand new nature. And yet, scripture tells us that we also grow in our new life. The longer we follow Jesus, the more we are to be growing into looking more and more like Him.

So some questions: Are you growing in Christ? What does this growth look like? And maybe most importantly, how do you grow spiritually?

In this message we look at the broad, but crucial, vital sign of spiritual growth and seek to gain a better understanding of how spiritual growth happens in Christ.

2 Corinthians 5:17–18 | The beginning of a Doctor's visit usually looks the same.

Thermometer...

Blood pressure cuff...

Stethoscope...

A doctor starts nearly every appointment the same way. They check your vitals. They can tell a lot about our basic health by quickly checking just a few things on us physically.

This is the beginning of a series where we'll ask, "What are the vital signs of a healthy walk with Jesus?" For 6 weeks we will discover some vital signs scripture would identify as indicators of health in our walk with Christ.
