To the Ends of the Earth
December 5, 2024
As disciples of Jesus, we know we’re called to spread the good news of the Gospel. But sometimes we fret about exactly where our mission field is, and to whom we’re meant to share God’s Word.
In this message, Jill Briscoe puts it bluntly: “It doesn’t matter where you’re standing, that’s your mission field.” She explains how God fills the gaps of our inadequacy as we obey his command to tell others about the liberating love of Jesus.
As part of her message, Jill tells the compelling story of how she and her husband, Stuart Briscoe, began their lifetimes of evangelism in the United States and around the world.

There are no guarantees that all will go smoothly in life or marriage because there are many forces intent on destroying our lives and relationships. But God promised us the resources we need to deal with life’s eventualities and we have to decide which way we are going to go—or as Joshua said, which gods are we going to serve?

What's a parent to do with a child in this day and age? What's a child to do with a parent? The New Testament says that children are to obey their parents, for this is right. Parents are told not to "exasperate" their children (Eph. 6:3-4). That means don't drive them up the wall! Instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Is this possible in this present evil age?

How can we live above the problems of everyday life? Habakkuk tells us how, and it’s all about getting God’s perspective. There is unspeakable joy in embracing, accepting, and submitting to whatever “burden” God has called each of us to endure. With His help, we can live above it!
Jill taught this message at a conference on the spiritual art of leadership.

Effective ministry will not happen if the ones who are seeking to minister have lost their cutting edge. In building the Kingdom, it is critical to stay spiritually sharp – to depend on Christ to do His work through us. The question is knowing how to do that.
This is the first part in Jill's two-part series on the spiritual art of leadership.

Our kids often look at famous athletes, singers, and actors to be their role models or examples of how they want to be. But did you know that they often follow your actions and examples, too? And you may not realize it, but there may be other people in your life who look to you to set a good example. In this message, Jill discusses the importance of being a good example and gives us practical ways we can do so.

Is worshiping God the central focus of your life? Well, if it isn’t, it should be. In this message, Jill Briscoe looks at the book of Exodus and focuses on the tabernacle that Moses built to help us gain a better understanding of what it really means to worship God.

What kind of spiritual gifts do you have? For many of us, it’s hard to know. But it’s easier than you think to discover the wonderful gifts God has given you. In this message, Jill explains how by just looking at our lives and our day-to-day activities we can discover how to use our talents for God’s will and purposes.

Most of us can think of a time when we had a craving for something sweet… a cookie, ice cream, or a brownie. For some, this kind of craving can result in an internal battle. The flesh says yes, but the mind may be thinking of the ramifications and may want to say no. The same is true with the sin in our lives. The mind may understand that it's a bad thing to do, but the body may just react and sin out of habit or discouragement. In this message, Jill shares how we can combat sin and be holy.

Many of us live a Christian life that’s like a saggy bed. We’re rock firm on one end and rock firm on the other. We know we’ve accepted Christ, and we know we’re going to heaven when we die. But we sag in the middle. So how do we fix the sag? In this message, Jill helps us learn to obey and apply what the Bible teaches so that we can grow in our faith.
