In this worship broadcast, we hear a message from Romans 15.23-33 that helps us understand the local church does not exist within its own bubble. We celebrate the Lord’s Supper near the end of the service, so feel free to have your bread and juice handy to join in. You can watch the whole broadcast below, or just the message below that.

The Mission
How does God’s mission get accomplished? The apostle Paul, in writing to the church at Rome in the first century, gave a clear picture of what that looked like for him, and there are things we can learn from his experience as we seek to undertake the work of God in our time. Based on Romans 15.14-22, you can watch the entire worship broadcast below, or just the message below that.
The Great I AM
Jesus had a simple mission: to do what the Father wanted him to do. In John 8.21-30, we learn how this Great I AM – Jesus, the Messiah, the holy presence of God – undertook that mission. Watch, or listen, below.
Think like a missionary
In celebration of 60 years of God’s faithfulness at St. Paul’s Church, Nobleton, we invited friends of the congregation from years gone by, and many came! I shared this message, “Think like a missionary”, from Matthew 22, 28 and 13. Watch on Facebook Live, or listen at the link below.

Mission as Evangelism
Evangelism is something that not many church going people are good at, sometimes because we don’t know what it is, and sometimes because we don’t know why or how to do it. In this message, from 2 Corinthians 5.11-15, we learn about that.
Near the end, we watched a video that you can find here.
Mission as Service
There are different aspects of mission for the church, and one is service. Today, based on 1 Corinthians 3.5-9, we look at how acts of service and kindness can build a bridge to Jesus. Have a listen below, or watch the Facebook feed (no account required) at the link underneath.
Connect, Grow, Serve
Our vision for ministry – what God calls us to do, flowing from the Great Commission – at St. Paul’s Church, Nobleton, is to help people connect with God, grow in Christ, and serve in community. But how does that all happen?
Because, as Andy Stanley reminds us, “vision leaks”, it’s important to be reminded now and again what it is that God has 
called us to be as a community. Based on Ephesians 4.11-24, you can listen to the message here:
