Compelled by Love: A Journey to Missional Living - Member Book (CSB)

Compelled by Love: A Journey to Missional Living - Member Book (HCSB) is a 7-session Bible study for adults, mission teams, church mission and ministry leaders. The what of ministry is to declare God's greatness and to call people to respond to the gospel. But sometimes the why of ministry escapes us. We should do the right thing, but we simply don't have the motivation.

Based on 2 Corinthians 5:14-15, this course places participants in touch with the heart of God -- the compassion, mercy, and love that drove Him to sacrifice His Son for their salvation. They will discover how they can join God on mission, sharing His love with everyone they meet, everywhere they go.
