-When Jesus brings your heart back to life, He brings your purpose back to life.In this Advent message, “Sent Again: When Jesus Opens Your Eyes and Reignites Your Mission,” Pastor Christian walks through Luke 24 (the road to Emmaus) and Genesis 12 to show how Jesus meets us in disappointment, opens the Scriptures, reveals His presence, and then sends us back into the world with renewed courage and mission.We explore:-Why we all want clarity before obedience—and why Abraham, Cleopas, and we don’t get it-How disappointment and unmet expectations (“we had hoped…”) can blind us to Jesus right beside us-Why spiritual blindness is less about information and more about interpretation-How Jesus uses Scripture and the table (hospitality, breaking bread) to reawaken our hearts-Why true encounters with Jesus always lead to turning around and being sent againThis message is part of our fall missional series and the beginning of Advent, inviting us to resist consumerism, hurry, and distraction, and instead slow down to recognize Jesus’ presence and say yes again to His call.Reflection / Practice prompts from the sermon:-Where are you carrying disappointment right now—places you quietly say, “I had hoped…”?-What would it look like this Advent to return to your “Jerusalem”—your place of calling, vocation, or relationships—with fresh intention?-How can you make simple space at the table (meals, coffee, conversation) for Jesus to reveal Himself and for others to encounter Him through you?-What step of obedience or mission have you been avoiding that Jesus is inviting you to step into again?Scripture: Luke 24:13–35; Genesis 12:1–3If this message encouraged you, consider sharing it with a friend, subscribing, or joining us in person at Frontier Church Pasadena as we walk through Advent and learn to live sent again in the way of Jesus.
