Equipped to Serve-Pastor David Dorn

In this sermon from the "Reclaiming Faith" series, Pastor David addresses the urgent need for Christians to mature in their faith and recognize their mission-critical role in God's Kingdom. He references Matthew 24:14 about the gospel being preached to all nations before the end comes, emphasizing that the mission field often exists in our everyday lives - our homes, workplaces, and communities. Using Ephesians 4:1-8 and 11-16, Pastor David explains how Paul, writing as a prisoner in Rome, urged believers to "live a life worthy of the calling you have received" through humility, gentleness, patience, and love. The pastor challenges what he calls "casual Christianity," arguing that spiritual immaturity is holding back the church's effectiveness. He points out the irony that while Christians today have unprecedented access to God's Word, many take it for granted and fail to let it transform them. Drawing from Paul's call to "grow up" and mature in faith, Pastor David emphasizes that each person has been gifted by grace and called to serve in their unique context. He warns against being like a numb limb in the body of Christ, quoting Ephesians 5:14 about awakening from spiritual sleep, and concludes with the urgent call to stop spectating and start actively participating in Kingdom work.
