All in Right Now...Together
from Bluffton Community Hosted by Bluffton Community
Primary Scripture: Ephesians 4:7-13 Cross References: Acts 6:4; 12:25; Romans 12:6-8 Message Overview: Paul said that Jesus gave “gifts” to the church: leaders. Their role is to equip believers for ministry with the end goal being unity and maturity (maturity = the fullness of Christ). Elders at each location will have the opportunity to provide a current, transparent snapshot of where we currently are as local churches: both the successes and challenges. Exposing things like ministry strategies we use (i.e. small groups, kids/students, etc) as well as highlighting the scoreboard so people can gauge health and effectiveness (Yeses, baptism, volunteer %, finances, etc). Prompting Questions: Who are those leaders in our churches who equip? How can a believer in our church engage in training for real ministry? How should we understand “the fulness of Christ?” What aspects of our ministries are many people in the dark about and it would benefit them/mission to know more?
