Jeremy Utley - Valuing the Ministry of Encouragement
Speaker: Jeremy Utley Title: Valuing the Ministry of Encouragement Date: 07-14-2019 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The speaker argues that the greatest danger to believers is not material need, but the subtle danger of unbelief, which he compares to a lurking lion. He emphasizes that the primary ministry appointed by God to combat this danger is mutual encouragement, urging believers to encourage one another daily. He warns that 'discouragement' is often a euphemism for unbelief, and that everyone must take this ministry seriously, especially within their own families.
