Our Sister Phoebe by Pastor Jack King on Saturday, June 20, 2026

Discovering the Secret Power of Serving -- When we read Romans 16:1-2, we are introduced to Phoebe, a woman the Apostle Paul commends as a servant of the church. Pastor Jack King highlights how she represents the vital "Ministry of Helps," a calling that often goes unrecognized but is essential to the health of the body of Christ. -- Many Christians struggle to see the "big picture" of ministry. Pastor King shares personal stories from his own life, from his time as a young sailor in the Navy to his years as a pastor, emphasizing that true service often happens in the background, away from the spotlight. -- Serving is not about seeking recognition or payment. It is about having a heart that recognizes a need and steps in to meet it with excellence and joy. Just as Phoebe was a "securer" of people, God calls us to be people who can be counted on to get the job done. -- If you are looking for a place to serve but don't know where to start, the wisdom shared in this message provides a practical roadmap. By starting with small, faithful tasks, you demonstrate your heart to your leaders and begin a journey of impactful service. -- Ultimately, every act of service performed "as unto the Lord" has a ripple effect that we may never fully comprehend this side of heaven. Your willingness to serve frees up others to minister, touches lives in ways you may not see, and glorifies God.
