Taking Action Theological Grounding

Go and Do!

Call and Commission (Jeremiah 1:4-5)

Do Justice, Love Kindness, Walk Humbly with God (Micah 6:8)

Jesus calls us to action, as well as to prayer and reflection. Read these passages and then reflect.

  • How can Jesus’ life and ministry be a model for us as we engage in mission?
  • What am I being called and commissioned to do?
  • How am I living more fully into my Baptismal Covenant?
  • How does this action inform and empower my prayer life?
  • How do these passages impact my work?
