Monday Morning Perspective

Yesterday was a great day at fairview!  We continued in our series Body Building with a focus on spiritual gifts. My husband challenged us to not be a people who sit and soak and eventually sour but to use our gifts to build up the body of Christ. Spiritual gifts are always for God's glory. Eddie stressed that some some are more interested in being served rather than serving. He challenged us to be ministry minded rather than having a consumer mentality. Consumers have the mind set of how can I give the least and get the most. Spectators soon become ones who critique and criticize with very little interest in serving. Very thankful for the message. Very thankful to sit under a leader worth following. Very thankful for a pastor who equips but also does the work. Like he said, that's what it takes to reach the world. We are in it together!!
