Matthew 9:36-38'Seeing the people, He felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. "Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest."'
Matthew 10:1-The Twelve Disciples; Instructions for Service
"Jesus summoned His twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every kind of disease and every kind of sickness."
What an honor it is to be called on as Christ's solution to His compassion. For the first 10 chapters of Matthew, we hear all about lineage of Christ, the baptism of Christ, His teaching, and His disciples have been right there learning from Him, watching His miracles and hearing His teachings.
In Chapter 9 of Matthew, when His compassion was expressed, the first thing He teaches is for His disciples to pray that the LORD of the harvest would send laborers into the harvest. The next thing that we hear from Matthew after this request is Jesus commissioning His disciples to go to the house of Israel, with the message of the kingdom, to cast out evil spirits and to heal diseases...the very work that Jesus was doing.
Working in ministry in general and in the "inner-city youth"specifically, we can easily see Jesus' compassion if we open our eyes. Just as Jesus saw, they are helpless and confused like sheep without a shepherd. They are following anyone who seems to have an answer. Pray that Christ and His teachings be presented in a way that is easily understood, and will that out youth will choose to follow HIM. We are Christ's solution to Christ's compassion.
May we be faithful,
Quest

The vision was birthed out of a desire to demonstrate God's relevance, and in a Biblically sound way teach young people who God has communicated and demonstrates Himself to be. We intend to ultimately evangelize, equip, encourage, and disciple young people with a vision to discover and use their God-given talents and abilities to both honor God, and take the message of the cross across/into their various cultures.
