Red Letters: Live On Mission - Pastor Josiah Elias

Pastor Josiah reminded us that our mission is to culture like Christ and our vision is Jesus. Last week’s message, “No Excuses,” called us to align our hearts and minds with the Lord, while this week’s sermon, “Live on Mission,” built on that as our Africa team returned. Centered on Luke 14–15, Pastor Josiah challenged us to put Jesus first, even above family and comfort, teaching that denying ourselves is truly honoring Him. The Africa team shared how saying “yes” to God transformed their lives and deepened their faith through miracles, healing, and boldness. From delays to divine encounters, they witnessed God’s abundant life (John 10:10) and saw how He moves both in Africa and here at home. As Pastor Josiah said, whether across the street or across the world, we are called to live on mission—to say “yes” to Jesus and be salt and light in a dark world.
