Bible Brunch for Unchurched Kids
WELCOME to Issue #210 of The Seedhead from Alex and Hannah at Dandelion Resourcing - a weekly confidence booster to help you step into naturally supernatural discipleship and mission!
How a worn-out Mom turned from focusing on herself to impacting neighborhood kids with the Gospel
Have you ever felt too pooped to serve Jesus?
Do your responsibilities weigh you down and inhibit mission?
Are you overwhelmed by the seeming complexity of ‘doing something missional’?
Michelle is part of Garden Church, where we belong and serve here in southern California. In this video she tells Hannah how God met her in all three of these areas listed above and turned things around in an amazing way.
Feeling challenged by the Holy Spirit to do something simple, local, and involving her own children, she found herself teaching the Bible (and providing food!) to all sorts of otherwise unchurched children in her community.
This is a fun testimony - and one that is characterized by simplicity, repeatability, and the Spirit’s empowering.
All of which means you might find yourself inspired to do something in your place of mission that similarly reflects these values, even if you’re called to reach a different demographic.
This is a great little video to share to inspire and encourage your church family.
Here’s the video:
Next Steps
Thinking of the lost around you, who specifically could you be welcoming and hospitable to at this time?
How might you be able to segue into a spiritual conversation and relationship with them, without being abrupt or awkward about it?
We love these sorts of simple, repeatable missional experiments!
While in all likelihood Michelle won’t be doing this in a decade’s time, she is being faithful to the Lord’s call today, and thus is opening up herself (and her family) to what the currently unseen next phase will be in the future.
So the lesson is: just start being missional today, and see what God does with it!
With love,
Alex + Hannah
