Sacrificial Service

The gospel isn't just personal, it's communal — Jesus became a person to die for persons and to gather us into the people of God. Paul's final chapter of Romans, full of names most people skip over, reveals that the church's mission has always been about people, not programs, and every person matters to the plan.

God has called every believer, not just pastors, to point people to Jesus by loving them like Jesus. That calling only works when we stop trying to stretch our lives in competing directions and instead live intentionally around Christ, drawing our strength from His power rather than our own.
