Vision for 2026: Blessed to be a Blessing

This New Year's message calls believers to embrace a vision of being a blessing to others. Pastor Mike emphasizes that the church's primary purpose is sharing God's Word, but this is most effectively done through demonstrating God's love by meeting people's basic needs. The sermon challenges believers to move beyond comfortable Christianity into active ministry that reaches the lowest, most hurting, and struggling people in society. Through prayer, seeking God's Word, and taking steps of faith, each believer can discover their unique calling in ministry. The ultimate goal is not merely meeting physical needs, but opening doors to share the gospel and see people saved for eternity. The message stresses that God uses ordinary, weak people to accomplish His purposes, and that consistent spiritual growth prevents falling away from faith.
