I3 Wellness

The Core Value of Wellness

We will value wellness as the experiential fullness of

abundant life as promised by God and as realized through

His divinely-empowered agenda of recovery

INQUIRE of the Lord

INVEST in the lives of the lost & the disenfranchised

INVITE them to my church

An Openness

Jesus demonstrated an openness to encounter and

engage people outside of the Jewish “comfort zone”

Do we?

An Openness Exercise

Define your comfort zone

Memorize Luke 19:10

Are the people outside your comfort zone lost?

If Jesus came to save them, how can I be closed

to them?

An Awareness

Jesus noticed and initiated contact at the point of people’s

need

The Truth About People

Everyone likes to be noticed

Everyone has unmet needs

Everyone is intrigued by interesting propositions

Everyone likes gifts

A Boldness

Jesus never hesitated to help people understand the obstacles

between them and God

The Wellness Threshold

The Wellness Threshold

That point where we cease to understand our greatest need as being something in the physical

dimension and shift our attention to perceive our problem in the

dimension of the spiritual

An Immunity

Jesus was immune from anything that detracted from His mission of accomplishing God’s

will for His life

Today’s Invitation

Meet the Messiah

Bring others to Jesus

Avoid any distraction from accomplishing His will for

your life
