Chapter 2: The Oikos Map | May 10, 2026

About this episode

This episode discusses the transition from personal healing to external mission, emphasizing the importance of viewing one's relational network as a mission field.

Ready to move past self-help and step into your Chapter 2? In Week 4 of our series, we pivot from internal healing—the preparation—to external mission, tackling the true purpose behind your redemption: serving the world God saved you for. It’s time to stop treating the people in your relational network—your neighbors, coworkers, and friends, or your Oikos—as mere "traffic" and start seeing them as your strategic mission field. Join us as we challenge you to map out the 5 to 8 people in your front row and learn the "Strategy of the Towel" by practicing "Low-Bar Hospitality" and "blessing someone uncomfortably well." Discover how moving from being a passive passenger to an active envoy allows you to turn the volume up on the Gospel without raising your voice, proving that the empty tomb is a present-day reality living inside of you.
