International Sunday Encounter

Jul 26, 2026    Pastor Wayne Frye

What does it truly mean to be part of a global faith? This message pulls back the curtain on the heart of missions, reminding us that the call to reach the world is not reserved for a select few but is woven into the very fabric of what it means to follow Christ. Drawing from Psalm 67, we are invited into a vision of God's blessing that flows outward -- not just to us, but through us to every people group on earth.


The Great Commission in Matthew 28 is not a suggestion but a command, and it challenges us to ask whether our faith has stayed too close to home. We explore five pillars -- the command, the call, the cost, the choice, and the current urgency of missions -- each one building a compelling case for why an international heart is not optional for believers. The message also holds up a mirror to the quiet hindrances that hold us back: busyness that masquerades as productivity, fear of rejection, apathy born of comfort, and a lack of understanding about what Christ's sacrifice truly cost.


Together, these insights push us to examine whether our faith is as outward-facing as it was always meant to be.
