The One Session Video

In The One, by pastors Jen and Jim Cowart, readers will learn to respond to God’s great love for us by reaching out to the ones in our lives who are lost, not literally but spiritually—those who have not yet discovered the rich love God has for them. God sent his Son to earth on a rescue mission, “to seek and to save the lost” (Luke 19:10)—or as the parables in Luke 15 show us, to save “the one.” And Jesus has entrusted us, his disciples, to carry on this mission until his return.

In this video segment, Jim and Jen Cowart introduce the concept of the “One,” a church-wide and individual commitment to reach those people who have yet to discover God’s love and grace for themselves. They also encourage us to understand personally the depths of God’s love for us and the great lengths he went to rescue us. In addition, guest speaker Jill shares about a time when she searched for her lost son.
