OUR MISSION To help people know and grow closer to Jesus. OUR VISION The people of Pennway mobilized by God’s power to help transform people into fully committed, multiplying followers of Jesus. -Change Our World- “God’s Strategy” Acts 1

Our world is a mess in so many ways. As God’s children, it is time for us to become world changers. Let’s look at God’s strategy for changing the world.

Step One – God came to the earth to take away our sins 1. Jesus came to earth as told about in Luke’s 1st book 2. Jesus died in our place as the sacrifice for the new covenant 3. Jesus rose from the dead to confirm He is God

Step Two – Jesus trained up disciple makers 1. 12 men chosen to be apostles, plus other disciples 2. Taught them about the kingdom of God 3. Commissioned them to become disciple makers (Matthew 28: 19-20)

Step Three – Jesus gave them the power of God 1. Jesus showed them the power of God 2. Jesus led them to use the power of God to touch others (John 14:12, Luke 9:1, Matthew 10:1) 3. Jesus promised them that the power of the Holy Spirit would come and live in them.

Step Four – Jesus sent them to change the world one person at a time 1. In Jerusalem 2. In Judea 3. In Samaria 4. To the ends of the earth

Verse 1 I'm casting my cares aside. I'm leaving my past behind. I'm setting my heart and mind on You, Jesus. I'm reaching my hands to Yours, Believing there's so much more, Knowing that all You have in store for me is good, It's good.

Chorus 1 Today is the day You have made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. Today is the day You have made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. And I won't worry about tomorrow; I'm trusting in what You say. Today is the day. Today is the day.

Verse 2 I'm putting my fears aside. I'm leaving my doubts behind. I'm giving my hopes and dreams to You, Jesus. I'm reaching my hands to Yours, Believing there's so much more, Knowing that all You have in store for me is good, It's good.

Chorus 1

Bridge I will stand upon Your truth. (I will stand upon Your truth.) And all my days I'll live for You. (All my days I'll live for You.) And I will stand upon Your truth. (I will stand upon Your truth.) And all my days I'll live for You. (All my days I'll live.)

Chorus 2 Today is the day You have made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. Today is the day You have made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. And I won't worry about tomorrow; I'm giving You my fears and sorrows. Where You lead me I will follow. I'm trusting in what You say; Today is the day. (5X)
