Different on Purpose | 1 Peter 5

from City Lights Church Hosted by City Lights Church

What should the church look like when life falls apart? Teaching from 1 Peter 5, guest speaker Pastor Marcus Witherspoon challenges us to see the church not as a hotel for people who have everything together, but as a hospital for broken people seeking the perfect Healer. Through stories of loss, addiction, transformation, and faithful community, this message explores God’s blueprint for His church: leaders who act as stewards rather than owners, believers who choose service over status, and a community where humility is essential—not optional. When we care for one another, lead by example, and cast our worries on God, we create space for people to experience the healing, hope, and strength found in Jesus. No matter how hard life has hit or how far from God you may feel, you do not have to have everything figured out. You can simply pray, “God, I can’t. You can, so I might as well let You.”
