Preaching the Word in Challenging Times: A Call to Faithful Ministry - Pastor Yves, September 21st

In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine our spiritual filters and how we receive God's Word. The parable of the sower reminds us that our hearts can be like different types of soil, and we must cultivate fertile ground for God's truth to take root and flourish. We're called to not just hear the Word, but to proclaim it boldly, using it to reprove, rebuke, and exhort with patience and teaching. As the world increasingly rejects sound doctrine, we must stand firm in our faith, enduring suffering and fulfilling our ministry. This isn't just a call for leaders, but for all believers to be evangelists in their spheres of influence. As we long for Christ's return, we're encouraged to live with purpose, pouring ourselves out as living sacrifices, knowing that a crown of righteousness awaits those who love His appearing. Let's examine our hearts and ask: Are we truly ready for Christ's return? Are we living each day with eternal perspective?
