Faithful Followers | Crowds & Christians | Pastor Jason Hitte 04.19.2026

What are you doing with your seat? In this message, we’re challenged to see that while the seat is a blessing, it was never meant to become our residence. Church isn’t just a place to sit, it’s a place to be transformed, to stand up, and to step into a life of serving Jesus and others. Through the story of Matthew, who immediately got up when Jesus called his name, we’re reminded that real faith requires movement, leaving comfort behind to follow Christ fully. This message calls us beyond attendance into true discipleship, refusing to settle for shallow faith and instead embracing obedience, purpose, and impact. From salvation to baptism and beyond, the invitation is clear: don’t stay seated when Jesus is calling you to stand.
