One gives us our mission, the other gives us our motivation. BIG IDEA: 👉 Jesus showed us how to love God, love people, and make disciple-makers. Tonight we’ll explore: -Why the Great Commission is a lifestyle, not an occasional activity -The two commands & three verbs Jesus gives us -Why Jesus’ authority and presence fuel disciple-making -How the Great Commandment anchors our motive in love -How mission + motive work together like a tandem bike Whether you're tuning in from home or watching later, we’re grateful you're part of the CityWell family tonight. 📖 Scripture References: Matthew 28:18–20 Matthew 22:36–40 Luke 10:25–37 1 John 4:20–21 🔗 Helpful Links -Start a relationship with Jesus: https://citywell.church/ImIn -Support CityWell financially: https://citywell.church/Give ✍️ Fill-In Notes — Our Mission and Motive (Like Jesus Week 3) BIG IDEA: Jesus showed us how to love _____, love _____, and make _____.
