The Sent Ones
Dr. Scott McKee, in "Surprise the World, Part 4," explores the theme of 'The Sent Ones' from Matthew 5:14-16 and 10:7-8. He draws parallels between our lives as Christians and movie trailers, suggesting our actions should preview the Kingdom of Heaven. Emphasizing the church's role as a sign, instrument, and foretaste of God's reign, Dr. McKee explains how reconciliation, justice, beauty, and wholeness are integral to demonstrating God's kingdom on Earth. He shares touching stories, including personal experiences and inspiring acts by congregation members, to illustrate living as 'sent ones' who actively manifest God's love and grace in everyday life.
