Jeremy Utley - A Caretaker of the Vineyards
Summary
The Lord builds the church, but He equips it through every individual member functioning properly, like the joints of a body. The speaker warns against neglecting one's personal spiritual life—one's 'own vineyard'—while focusing on ministry or serving others. To care for one's own vineyard, one must examine the fruit of love, the soil of humility, and other aspects of personal devotion.
