Luke 16:10
He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.
There are no small assignment, we all work together to make up the Body of Christ.
Jesus sat with them, held them accountable, and challenged them.
We have to collectively be a church where serving isn’t unusual; not serving is unusual.
There are people walking through our doors who don’t know Jesus yet, and we’re not going to sit back and hope somebody else reaches them.
We are Guts Church.
Matthew 9:37
Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
The problem isn’t the harvest. The harvest is ready.
The question is whether there will be enough people willing to work it.
COUNT ME IN!
This is bigger than filling volunteer positions, it’s about answering the call of God.
Need somebody willing to do whatever it takes to reach people? COUNT. ME. IN.
We’re not building an audience. We’re building an army.
Galatians 6:9
And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
There’s a harvest in front of us.
Find your place.
Use your gift.
Carry your part.
Serve people.
Build the Church.
COUNT ME IN.
