Sermon: "Rest And The Mission of God" // Isaiah 58

About this episode

This sermon explores the connection between rest and engaging in the mission of God as described in Isaiah 58.

We can only rest when we enter into the mission of God. What is the mission of God? Isaiah 58 describes it as a fast that looses bonds of wickedness and frees the oppressed. And sharing bread with the hungry and bringing the homeless/poor into your house. Jesus says what you have done to the least of these you have done unto me. We pray you are encouraged by this sermon from Isaiah 58 to live out the mission of God in your own lives!
