NOTES

All In
“All In Together”
Pastor Carl Nichols

Acts 11:27–30
The disciples, as each one was able, decided to provide help for the brothers and sisters living in Judea.

Luke never tells us...
Who gave the most.
Who gave the least.
Who sacrificed the most.
Who sacrificed the least.

Luke only tells us one thing: Every disciple responded.

What will my response be?

God doesn't ask everyone to give the same. He asks everyone to surrender the same.

The Response of an All In Church:

1. Every Person Has a Part

Acts 11:29
As each one was able...

Not equal gifts. Equal surrender.

People with much...gave much.
People with little...gave little.
Everybody...gave something.

2. Every Gift Tells a Story

Generosity extends your ministry beyond your lifetime and beyond your location.

Compassion always travels farther than convenience.

Compassion crosses borders. Generosity builds the bridges.

3. Every Response Builds the Future

Their generosity prepared them for multiplication.

Week 1…Mission - Why are we here?
Week 2…Community - What happens when people stop attending church and start becoming the Church?
Week 3…Sacrifice - What does All In actually look like?
Week 4…Multiplication - What kind of church do we want to become?
Week 5…Response - What will my response be?

The only unfinished part of the series...is your answer.

For sixteen years...we've been living in somebody else's generosity.

We have the opportunity...to become somebody else's miracle.

Acts 11:29
...as each one was able...

What is God asking of you?
