SLC General Session 2 - Jeff Maguire

Jeff is the Student Ministries Pastor at Mariners Church. He did a great job talking through the biblical purpose of evangelism. Here are some notes:

Matthew 5:13-16 --> "let your good deeds shine before men"

Good: anything that reflects the image and glory of God
Deeds: anything connected to what we do or how we live
Good Deeds: anything connected to what we do or how we live that reflects the image and glory of God

(Genesis 1:27, 31)

Options for interacting with the world


  • Condemn the world

  • Copy the world

  • Create good

I thought Jeff's talk was great. His emphasis for evangelism was on showing people what God is like. Two quick thoughts:


1. This has always been important (even when we haven't emphasized it)


2. This is and will become more and more important in our culture
