The Marks of a True Christian Leader — Are You Willing to Pay the Price?

In this powerful and sobering sermon from 2 Corinthians 6:3–13, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson reflects on the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, honoring his bold witness for Christ and challenging the church to consider why God takes such voices so early. Using the Apostle Paul’s example, Pastor Johnson urges believers to examine the marks of true spiritual leadership—great sacrifice, endurance through trials, spiritual fruitfulness, and unwavering love even when rejected or misunderstood. This message is a heartfelt call to action for the church in a post-Christian culture. With urgency and vulnerability, Pastor Johnson calls on believers to mobilize, speak the truth of the gospel without shame, and model the selfless, sacrificial love of Christ and Paul. A stirring encouragement for anyone desiring to live a life of eternal impact—no matter the cost.
