Series: The Servant King
Topic: A God Who Came to Die, Acts of Service, Empowerment by the Holy Spirit, Identity, Servant Leadership
Book: 1 Corinthians
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12
The sermon presents the Spirit-empowered church: the Holy Spirit gives every believer unique gifts to build the body of Christ; church is interdependent service, not consumer attendance. Gifts are grouped as prophet/priest/king (conveying, assisting, ordering). Discern gifts by serving, asking others, and noticing burdens. Three takeaways: accept and nurture your Spirit-given gift, get involved in practical service, and act to discover or restore your role so the church can flourish.
Stewardship, Hospitality, Empowerment, Obedience, Fellowship
