Drive: The Mission of God in the World Lesson 2, Family Devotion Each week from 1966 to 1973, America tuned in to watch the Impossible Missions Force, a team of government agents sent on a series of covert operations to combat the evil organizations and dictators of the world. The show was titled Mission: Impossible. You might remember the movie remakes starring Tom Cruise. What made the show so memorable was the way in which the lead agent would receive his assignment. The assignment was typically delivered via a recording, and it would always begin with the following statement: “Your mission, should you decide to accept it . . .” Upon completion of the assignment instructions, the playback device would “self-destruct in five seconds.” You may not be a government official being sent out on a secret mission, but as a follower of Christ you are an agent being sent out on a very important mission. As Christ’s followers, we are agents of the highest kind. We don’t represent a governm...

Drive: The Mission of God in the World   Family Devotional  Lesson 1 You are wealthy! Did you know that? Okay, maybe not in comparison to the celebrities in People magazine, but if you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head, and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75 percent of the world. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish somewhere . . . you are among the 8 percent that comprise the world’s wealthiest. If you can read this message, you are more fortunate than more than one billion people in the world who cannot read at all. But we possess an even greater wealth: knowledge of salvation. Read Psalm 67 together as a family. It’s almost as if the unknown writer of the hymn had a glimpse into the future. Although he didn’t know exactly how salvation would come, he was sure that it would come because he believed in God’s promise to Abraham. No amou...
