You are the Church | Part 2: Serve the Church, Serve the Community | Jason Montano

The early church was exploding, and people were following this new movement of Christians from all over. As they were living out the teachings of Jesus, a problem occurred. The non-Jewish widows were falling through the cracks. The apostles addressed the problem, and realized they need to pray and teach and assign others to the very important ministry of care. It was a great model that has been lost in the modern church. We expect our pastors and leaders now to hold 100 different roles while people attend but not participate in the mission of Jesus. What has happened, and how do we get back to our roots?
