The High Call
The decision to live a life on mission is a life-altering decision. This article lays out FOCUS's mission of spiritual multiplication as the way to fulfill Jesus' Great Commission: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit" (Mt. 28:19).
Optional Lectio Divina Prayer
- Read Jeremiah 1:4-8.
- Meditate on the words.
- Speak to Christ about this passage.
- Rest and listen in God's presence.
- Discuss together.
World War II was the deadliest conflict in human history.
Beginning with the invasion of Poland by German forces in 1939, the battle soon engaged over 60 countries in the fight to stop the Nazis and their allies. From 1939-1945, 10 million American men (nearly one in three of able age) courageously enlisted to confront one of the most tangible manifestations of evil of our modern times. They committed their lives, some even giving the ultimate sacrifice through their deaths, to enter the largest battle this world has ever seen.
In reality, however, there is an even greater battle happening right now, one that engages every single person on Earth—the battle for eternity, the battle for our souls. And the consequences of this battle are far greater than the consequences of any earthly war; they are eternal. We are each engaged in this battle for our eternity, whether we choose to recognize it or not. We must make a decision—choosing to ignore the battle means choosing the losing side by default.
It is largely unknown what each of the commanding officers of those 10 million soldiers told them to motivate and encourage them before they entered into battle. However, last words like these bear great significance, and Jesus' last words are no different. His marching orders can be found in Matthew 28:18-20, which is known as the Great Commission. Before he ascended into Heaven, he said to his disciples, "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I will be with you always, until the end of the age."
Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations.
This is his instruction: to be an instrument in his work of bringing every person into relationship with him. When we accept the call to participate in Jesus' mission, it can—and will—change the rest of our lives. To the degree that we respond to this call, souls will be saved; and to the degree that we fail to respond, souls will be lost. Let's consider the ways Jesus has already been calling us and how he is calling us to enter into his mission for the salvation of the world.
The Message: The Gospel and Your Story
At the heart of the Gospel is this truth: "God proves his love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us" (Rom 5:8). Understanding this truth and the Lord's work in your life so far is crucial to understanding how he might be continuing to call you to Himself.
Discuss: How does your life look different since you encountered Christ? How has he challenged you to turn away from sin, sacrifice the comforts of this world and follow Him?
Jesus' Mission: Saving the World and Making Disciples
Christ came to rescue you, specifically and personally, but he also came for every single person that has lived and will ever live. He is calling us to have the same outlook for the world: that each soul is meant for Heaven but hangs in the balance between an eternity of life or death. Our response to his command to "make disciples of all nations" can make all the difference.
Discuss: Who has shared this life-changing message of the Gospel with you? What do you think of the fact that you could play a role in doing this for others and helping them to choose eternal life with Christ?
Jesus' Model: The "Little Way of Evangelization"
How would a small group of young men fulfill Christ's command to "make disciples of all nations"? Jesus asked his disciples to do what he Himself did: to invest in a few, to form them as faithful followers, and to teach them to do the same. He was forming not just disciples, living out prayer, fellowship, the sacraments and the teaching of the Apostles, but missionary disciples who were committed to passing on this life to others. This model for mission can be called Spiritual Multiplication.
Let's take a closer look at how Christ's own model can fulfill the Great Commission. Consider one person pursuing a deep, personal relationship with Jesus and desiring for others to know him. She starts intentionally investing in three others who also have a desire to know Jesus, teaching them to follow him. As they grow together, each of these three begins investing in friends of their own—two, three, or even more—who eventually go on to do the same, forming more and more missionary disciples with each new cycle of growth.
The effects begin slowly—one missionary disciple becomes four and four becomes thirteen. But for illustration purposes, if all continued to go well, after seven cycles, the total number reaches nearly 1,000, and after 13 cycles, over 500,000. At this rate, the entire world could be reached in just 22 cycles— that's within one lifetime of the original disciple! While human weakness and failure will always be present along the way, this model beautifully illustrates the potential impact one person can have in changing the world!
You don't have to be a talented speaker, a social media guru with thousands of followers or the most charismatic person in your community to become a missionary disciple. Think of this as the "Little Way of Evangelization." Just as St. Therese was able to accomplish great holiness through prayer and little acts of love, investing deeply in a few can bear tremendous fruit and help accomplish the Great Commission. All it takes is a lifetime of love.
Discuss: Do you think it's possible to reach the world in this way in your lifetime? Why do you think it is important for evangelization to occur through relationships and deep, personal investment?
Jesus' Method: Spiritual Multiplication in Action
Jesus lived spiritual multiplication by investing his life in his Apostles and teaching them to go out and share all that he had taught them. This is also what he invites us to do: his way is the "Method Modeled by the Master."
But how do we accompany others on the journey from desiring a relationship with Jesus to faithfully sharing his life and mission with others? First, by encountering them in friendship and living life together. Then, by sharing the Gospel with them and teaching them the habits of a disciple and the truths of Jesus' mission. And finally, by walking with them as they go on to share these truths with others and build them up to go on mission for the salvation of souls as well.
If you become who you are meant to be, you will set the world on fire.
Discuss: In what ways do you feel excited to lead others in this way? Do you have any fears about living this model with others?
The Cost of Battle
It's clear that the rewards of this battle are great, but they are not without cost. Jesus himself tells us in Luke 9:23, "If anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me." To follow Jesus as missionary disciples will mean making sacrifices—like denying ourselves of many comforts and control—so we can pour out our lives for the conversion of others. We will experience suffering in a new way as we contend with rejection, discouragement and disappointment. We will have to rearrange our schedules to make more time to love others, to grow in our formation and to spend time in prayer. The battle is real, as is the enemy; however, Christ has already overcome the enemy and he promised to remain with us always.
The soldiers in WWII gave their lives for freedom and peace— in their own generation, but also for future generations. In the same way, giving your own life for the Gospel will allow not only your current friends and acquaintances but also future generations to know the love and mercy of Jesus. You will not be in the battle alone—the Holy Spirit will be guiding your way, and you will be supported by a missionary disciple investing in you and a small community of growing disciples also seeking to walk in the way of spiritual multiplication.
Discuss: Will you accept Jesus' call to make disciples by committing to investing deeply in a few and teaching them to do the same? Answer this question, if you are ready, and take a minute to discuss your thoughts.
If you are ready to commit your life to following Jesus and living out his mission to save the world:
• Set up a consistent time to meet together each week so that you can pray, share life and hold each other accountable to living life on mission.
• Discuss expectations for living out spiritual multiplication— what are your hopes? How might the Lord already be calling you to lead others to Him?
• Share any fears or doubts you are experiencing. Are there any ways you are tempted to believe you are not qualified to be a missionary disciple?
• Discuss your next steps for putting spiritual multiplication into practice in your life. See additional articles for more details on ways to live out Jesus' mission in your day-to-day life as you participate in his plan to save the whole world.
As you prepare to embark on this journey of transforming the world as a missionary disciple, have hope! As St. Catherine of Siena says, "If you become who you are meant to be, you will set the world on fire!"
The Method Modeled by the Master: Jesus evangelized the world by investing in a few through whom he trained to the same. In so doing he imparted both faithfulness and fruitfulness that transformed the ancient world.
The Little Way of Evangelization: By imitating Christ, investing deeply in a few and training them to do the same, spiritual multiplication can reach the whole world for Christ today.
The Invitation to Accept the High Call: Will you accept Jesus' call to make disciples by committing to investing deeply in a few and teaching them to do the same?

Owl's lack of aerobatic ability causes Meg to send him off to school where he receives lessons in 'swooping and pouncing;, night flying, hovering, diving and even swimming. All in all, school is a great success - Owl wins an event on sport's day and makes lots of new friends and Meg makes herself a new hat.

Lawrenson premier league prediction
The, premier, league is one of the most unpredictable divisions in the world - which makes it all the more challenging for supporters to make their Premier. BBC Sport - BBC Sport football expert Mark. Lawrenson takes on legendary guitarist Johnny Marr to predict this weekend's.

Premier League fixture at Stamford Bridge. In the betting stakes, the Reds are currently behind City as favourites for the Premier League title. The Hammers attacker has constantly been withdrawn from games early this season due to seemingly picking up minor knocks and while it would be nice to rest him, Pellegrini knows he is the clubs best hope of getting another victory on the board this Sunday. Newcastle United, tottenham, up Next, breaking: Ethiopian athlete, Sintayehu Legese wins 2019 Lagos City Marathon. Lawrenson shared that his prediction wasnt based on form as Chelsea have won five games out of five while Manuel Pellegrinis side have struggled at home.

Round 19, premier League, predictions Saturday 12th January 2019 12:30 West Ham Utd v Arsenal 15:00 Brighton v Liverpool 15:00 Burnley v Fulham 15:00 Cardiff. I know City didnt play well but it is a little bit bizarre when you compare Newcastles display to some of their other home games this season. Prediction is Chelsea 2, Huddersfield.

Lawrenson, makes His, prediction, for Liverpool's Clash Against- Premier League win under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Fulham on Saturday. Mark Lawrenson is backing Liverpool FC to beat Arsenal 2-0 at Anfield on Saturday evening. Thats not based on form, because Chelsea have got five league wins out of five, or the fact West Ham are at home, because they have been struggling there. Saints got a thoroughly deserved win over Brighton last weekend. I am expecting more of the same from Sarris side.
Tottenham vs Brighton, prediction & Betting Tips- The Reds will welcome their top-five rivals to Merseyside. Mark Lawrenson is backing Arsenal to edge to a narrow 2-1 win against Watford at Vicarage Road on Monday night. Hopefully the BBC pundit is spot-on with his bold prediction for the Hammers sake as all that fuss about a terrible start will simply be a distant memory. The Saints wont be able to pick Danny Ings, though, with the striker ineligible to play against his parent club until his loan move is made permanent in the summer. Former Liverpool defender, Mark Lawrenson has tipped Maurizio Sarris Chelsea to beat Huddersfield Town 2-0 on Saturday evening when both sides clash in the Premier League fixture at Stamford Bridge.

Check the preview, chelsea FC will return to Europa League action next Thursday night when they take on Dynamo Kiev in the first leg of their last 16 tie. Donapos, sadio Mane and Adam Lallana could start. They really needed those three points despite the improvement they have made since Ralph Hasenhuttl took charge in December. While that of Tottenham vs Newcastle. That win over City was such a good one for Newcastle that it would not surprise me if they did something similar at Wembley. After seeing Fulham in the Championship last year. Tottenham vs Brighton prediction, and you have to think they will try. If they attack them, more, newcastle, t Miss. The kickoff time for the Chelsea vs Huddersfield match is 4pm. There will be joyous scenes at the London Stadium if Lawrenson is right as it would be a morale boosting victory if the Hammers defeated the Blues. Manchester City vs Arsenal, the Saints are certainly a more resilient side under manager Ralph Hasenhuttl but the TV pundit is backing his former team to triumph at St Marys.
I might be going out on a limb in backing the Hammers, but I just think something will click for them this time.
I think Spurs will find it tough going again on Saturday.
But, whoever the new permanent manager is, it is asking an awful lot for him to keep them. Last season, when the Magpies got a very good result they followed it up by stringing a little run together and I can see something similar happening here. Then they to go to Bournemouth, who were without injured striker Callum Wilson, lose 4-0 and put in a performance like they did.
I dont think Jan Siewert has been appointed Huddersfield boss to try to keep them up, he has got the job to get them back up next season.
The Blues will be aiming to at least break back into the Premier Leagues top four after finishing fifth last term.

Woman accused of threatening classmate with razor during disagreement over cause of diabetes
HOUSTON – A warrant was issued for the arrest of 22-year-old Rolonda Renee Lewis, who is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
What happened
Police said Lewis threatened a fellow student with a straight razor on July 12 at the Acres Home College of Barber Designs located at 2306 Ferguson Way.
Police said the victim told them that he and Lewis had been classmates at the college for about three months.
On the day of the incident in question, another classmate went to pick up lunch for himself, the victim and Lewis, according to court documents.
All three went to the break room to eat, officials said.
While they were eating lunch, according to court documents, Lewis and the victim got into an argument over the cause of diabetes.
Lewis lost "character" and spit on the victim during the argument, according to court documents.
The victim admitted to police that he said hurtful things about Lewis' sexuality during the argument, officials said.
After leaving the break room for a little while, Lewis returned and hit the victim on the left side of his face while she was still holding her slushy drink, according to authorities.
Lewis and the victim then walked out into the work area, where Lewis is accused of pushing all of his tools on the floor.
The victim told police that Lewis then went to her station and pulled out a straight razor and tried to attack him while saying, "I'm going to kill you," according to court documents.
Lewis then left the school, authorities said.

OT: Gun Manufacturers Fighting Backgreenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread
Go to this site for news that will make your weekend, if you believe in preserving our freedoms. That includes, to me, the right to freely engage in manufacture and commerce of bathtubs, in which some people drown people, baseball bats with which some people kill people, and so forth. These gun manufacturers are fighting back!
-- Elaine Seavey (firstname.lastname@example.com), January 21, 2000
-- Wilferd (firstname.lastname@example.com), January 21, 2000.
And there are also those who would ban video cams because they can be used to make kitty porn...
-- Mad Monk (email@example.com), January 21, 2000.
I have to acidulously note that I don't recall bathtubs being marketed and sold for their awesome abilities to hit targets hundreds of times in minutes. But don't let that stop you.
-- Ned Raggett (email@example.com), January 21, 2000.
Good evening.
Ned, as far as I know, there is no constitutional right to own and use a bathtub or car, but more folks die in these than are killed by firearms. If you don't want a gun, don't own one. If you don't want to be around them, move to England.
-- michael frazier (firstname.lastname@example.com), January 21, 2000.
Ned, I think you may mean "assiduously/"
Ned, responsible gun manufacturers do not advertise their guns to shoot HUMAN targets, etc. Read "Unintended Consequences" by Ross (amazon.com) and see what a wide, interesting, intelligent, often very scientifically-minded persons enjoy the use of guns for a great variety of shooting sports. Hunters also appreciate their use, and help to keep down otherwise starving herds of animals, i.e. deer, etc. And then there are those who just enjoy mastering a skill in target shooting. Finally, there are those of us who master the skill because we wish to protect our persons from attack, if at all possible. You would understand that if you had ever been a woman who'd been attacked. Then, of course, guns are manufactured for the police, the FBI, the DEA, the NSA, the CIA, etc. And of course, for our armed services. These are all (supposedly) legal agencies that protect the nation and its citizens...another thread can deal with that.
The fact that criminals use guns for their nefarious purposes does not entitle ANY municipality or individual to sue the manufacturers for their manufacture. Put them out of business, and Uncle Sam is going to be hard put to defend your ---.
I purposely mentioned bath tubs and bats because the man in Atlanta who ended up at a business firm and committed murders there with a gun first began his rampage at home, where he bludgeoned his wife and two children with a hammer, then finished them off by drowning them in the bathtub! But only ONE news source mentioned THAT fact...they let it appear it was a gun he'd used at home also, by their NOT mentioning otherwise. This is part of a growing national bias introduced by politicians to serve their own ends, namely, to make slaves out of an unarmed populace.
Please read your Constitution and Bill of Rights. I can send you a copy, if you'd like.
P.S. If you'd ever visit the NRA indoor range, which is located here in No Virginia, you would see fathers teaching their sons to shoot for pleasure and sport, law enforcement officers as instructors, husbands and wives practicing together, and a lot of very solid, NICE citizens. The criminals get their guns illegally usually, and they don't frequent places of sport like this.
-- Elaine Seavey (firstname.lastname@example.com), January 21, 2000.
"Delfay harshly admonished the Bill Clinton White House for its recent announcement that the Department of Housing and Urban Development might file its own lawsuit against the gun industry."
Maybe we citizens should sue the Federal Government. Seems that Public Housing kills people. However, they might argue that public housing doesn't kill people, people kill people.
-- Mark Hillyard (firstname.lastname@example.com), January 22, 2000.
Restore the Constitution........vote KEYES.
A member of my immediate family worked for Senator Simpson for several years. Wyoming rules. People in Wyoming don't need a big brother to take care of them. The higher the population, the more they 'need' help. We've always looked down upon sheep........
-- Will continue (email@example.com), January 22, 2000.
You want to know how bad it is??? The theme song from the HBO show "The Sopranos" has just started getting heavy radio airplay. The opening line of the song (also repeated elsewhere in the song) is "Woke up this morning got yourself a gun".
Well, guess what? When they play it on the radio they 'blur' the word GUN like they do when a song contains profanity!! Funny, but I never knew that the word 'gun' was profane. They play songs about gangsters busting caps, drug use, teens sleeping around, etc. but they can't say the word 'gun' in a song? Give me a break.
It's about time the gun manufacturers did something. This is absurd!!
-- TECH32 (firstname.lastname@example.com), January 22, 2000.
Weird. We can childproof medicine bottles, but not guns.
-- Uhhmmm... (email@example.com), January 22, 2000.
Heck......this society decided about the same time that 'gun control' really warmed up, to BEGIN medicating children in this country!!
If our kids had a parent at HOME with them (that wasn't 'medicated' themselves), they wouldn't NEED to childproof guns. We are one PATHETIC society in the parenthood department!

St. Petersburg, FL, Schools Offering Design Programs
Several schools in and around St. Petersburg offer degree programs focusing on areas of design.

Nasal surgery may be done at your doctor's office, a surgery center, or a hospital. You will be told how to prepare for surgery. Follow these directions carefully. And be sure you have your questions answered before the procedure.
Follow all of the instructions you are given. In addition:
Tell your doctor about any medicines you take. This includes over-the-counter medicines, herbs, and supplements. You may need to stop taking some or all of them before surgery.
Tell your doctor if you have a pacemaker.
Do not take medicines containing aspirin or ibuprofen during the 14 days before surgery.
Don't drink or eat for 8 hours before surgery.
Don't wear makeup, jewelry, or contact lenses to surgery.
Arrange for an adult family member or friend to drive you home after surgery.
Be aware that you may spend the night in the hospital. This is uncommon. Your doctor can discuss this possibility with you.
You will be given medicine to keep you from feeling pain during surgery. This is called anesthesia. The type you will have will be discussed with you before the procedure. You may have one of 3 types.
Local anesthesia. This numbs the nose and area around it. You may also be given medicine to relax you. But you will remain awake. Expect to hear noises and see movement during the surgery.
Monitored anesthesia care. This makes you drowsy or lightly asleep during surgery. You can still expect to hear some sounds.
General anesthesia. This puts you into a state like deep sleep during surgery. You will hear and remember nothing.
