Easter: What on earth am I here for?

The unchurched visiting your congregation this Easter will be grappling with the most fundamental question any of us can ask about life: “What on earth am I here for?" This will be your opportunity to tell them that nothing matters more than knowing God’s purpose for their lives and nothing can compensate for not knowing it -- not success, wealth, fame, or pleasure. We need to teach that, without purpose, life is motion without meaning, activity without direction, and events without reason. But, it’s never too late to discover our God-ordained purpose.

The New Testament teaches that God created you for five purposes. They’re listed in the Great Commandment and the Great Commission, practiced by the first Christians, modeled by Jesus, and explained by Paul. Follow this link to read the rest of Rick Warren's article.
