In this sermon, Pastor Karl dives into First Timothy Chapter 3, exploring the roles and qualifications of church leaders as outlined by the Apostle Paul. He emphasizes that titles like elder and deacon are not about elevating status but activating service within the church. Pastor Karl unpacks the historical context of the synagogue system to clarify Paul’s intent, highlighting that elders (overseers, pastors, or shepherds) and deacons (servants) are defined by their character and commitment to God’s calling, not by hierarchy or prestige. With only one of the 16 qualifications for leadership tied to ability, the focus remains on living a life of faith, integrity, and service. Pastor Karl challenges the congregation to step into their God-given roles, stressing that ministry begins where ego ends and that every Christ follower is called to serve and lead in the church. Through Paul’s spontaneous praise, Pastor Karl reminds us of the greatness of Jesus, who is alive and worthy of our active response to His call. Join us for an inspiring message about living out God’s purpose with humility and purpose.
