Growth Spurt (David Lyon)
from Living Rock Podcast Hosted by Living Rock Church
In this message, David celebrates the season of growth the church is experiencing—through the appointment of elders and deacons, and a shift in meeting times—and encourages the congregation to embrace what God is building through the image of a house being established by wisdom and understanding, with every room being filled (Proverbs 24:3-4). Drawing on Acts 2:42, Ephesians 4:16, and Philippians 1, David reveals four essential qualities to strengthen during this growth spurt: maintaining a passionate focus on mission and the lost, building deep community through teaching and fellowship, caring for the vulnerable with generosity and mercy, and stepping into growing leadership roles, remembering that deacons are servants full of the Spirit. As you listen, ask yourself: Am I ready to embrace the growth God is bringing to our church, and will I play my part—whether through serving as a deacon, sharing the gospel with those around me, or building community with others?
