Kindom: Include + Inspire + Invite is a seven-week worship series built on the belief that God created us for relationship with God and with one another, making us all kin. While differences and life’s circumstances can push us toward isolation, God through Christ restores that kinship and invites us into a community of mutual grace, humility and service where everyone is welcome and every person has value. Developed to support the Missouri Conference’s Pathway Out of Poverty priority, the series explores relational ministry through stories such as Ruth and Naomi, Jacob and Esau, and the widow’s offering, with weekly themes including IN Connection, IN Support, IN Reconciliation and All IN, plus three bonus weeks for added flexibility. The resource includes sermon building points, prayers, contemporary and blended music recommendations, worship outlines, small group and leadership team discussion starters, video stories of Missouri congregations living out Kindom ministry, recommended books and online resources, and series graphics.
Pastors and worship teams – use the series as written, choose the weeks that fit your calendar or adapt the material to your own ministry setting.
