General Session-Dr. Philip Renicks (Retired ASCI)
Friday Morning
600R “Encircling the Globe, Impacting the World, Impacting Culture”
Who is my neighbor?
• Where have I pitched my tent?
• Who are the people in your circle of greatest influence?
• Is there anyone you can exclude and still fulfill the command?
God has opened a huge door for Christians and Christian schools to meet a need in areas of significant tragedy (Indonesia, etc.)
John 13:24-35
Be people of influence. Be culture changers.
“I want my students to know the love and fragrance of Christ in me.”
Matthew 28:19-20
Teachers Everyday Commission
• Make Disciples
i. GO-win the lost and build in them a biblical worldview for all of life
ii. TEACH-equip your students with skills they will need to engage their culture for Christ (spiritual formation)
iii. LIFE CHANGE-engage your students in life changing opportunities as they engage the culture of their world
We have a command to obey.
We have a commitment to make.
A compromise to evade.
Carpe Aeternitatem “Seize Eternity”-Why settle for a day?
