September 13, 2020 - Preparing for Purpose - Called for a Purpose Series Part 3

A lot of people are looking for their function or position, but God wants us to take a step back and first find our purpose. Multiple passages of scripture say that every one of us is gifted in some way, and those gifts are given to us by God for the benefit of the body of Christ and fulfillment of the Great Commission. This leads to some logical questions. If we have a gift, how do we get ready to use it? How can we ensure that we’re prepared to do what God has called us for and gifted us to do? In this week’s message, we will discover that the answers to these questions run counter to what we think about purpose and success in the American church.
