Explore More: Gifted to Serve

Notes from Dave Parson's sermon on Sunday, Sept. 19th.

Each of us have been gifted by God to serve the Body of Christ.  As we serve in the area that God has called us to, the Body (the Church Family) is built up in love.  We grow in maturity and the world sees the love of Jesus.

Ephesians 4:7-16 – Talks of the Gifts Jesus has given to his Body (the Church)

Romans 12:3-8 – Shows us to serve God with our gifts which He has given.

1 Corinthians 12:4-31 – Reveals the diversity of gifts given to the Body by the Holy Spirit

Yet through all this we are called to “pursue love” which is the greatest gift of all.  For it is the love of the Father and the Son at the Cross that made it possible for us to come to Him as His Children.
  • Let us ask God to Show us how he has gifted us.
  • Let us begin serving the Body.
  • Let us watch Him grow us in His love.
As a result the world will see Him in us and draw them to Himself.
