    When the five-fold ministry is not operating properly, the church is handicapped. The Apostle provides government, order, stability and guidance. He is the tracklayer.

    The Office of the Apostle Intro.: When the five-fold ministry is not operating properly, the church is handicapped. Many churches and denominations don’t acknowledge that the offices of Apostle and Prophet exist any longer. So those leaders with these giftings are forced to mold themselves into ...read more

    The Office Of The Prophet

    The five-fold ministry is important to the Church fulfilling her end-time destiny. The prophet serves to declare that Jesus is the source of all gifts, including the miracle of new life itself.

    The Office of the Prophet Intro.: Every month hundreds of pastors resign their churches and leave the ministry. There are many reasons for this but I believe the most significant is “unreasonable expectations”. In most churches, the pastor is expected to function in every role- prophet, priest & ...read more

    The Office of the Evangelist Intro.: Apostles are sent to establish order. Prophets speak for God to build up the body. Evangelists declare the good news to the lost Pastors shepherd, lead, protect and feed the sheep Teachers instruct in truth, revealing instruction, guidance, enlightenment, ...read more

    Pastors are under attack today as never before. Many are overworked, underpaid, stressed-out & crumbling under the pressure of unrealistic expectations & constant crisis. Satan wants to destroy the church & he makes pastors special targets of his attack.

    The Office of the Pastor Intro.: Pastors are under attack today as never before.

    God has set teachers in the body of Christ to purge spiritual ignorance and to ground believers in the Word. Intellectuals often make simple truths difficult to understand. Teachers make even difficult or complex issues understandable.

    The Office of the Teacher Intro.: Educators tell us that a 3rd grade reading level is the benchmark educational level for success in our society. This means that anyone with a 3rd grade education can function adequately in life. They should be able to deal with the bank, the IRS, the government, ...read more

    The lost responded and those of His people that recognized His favor led them into the Kingdom. The rest sit on the side lines to watch the show or criticize it.

    The Coming Harvest The Great Commission and the harvest scriptures are some of the greatest examples of our goal as the Body of Christ to reach the World for God. Christians almost always try to reach the lost thinking like a Christian or from a Christian perspective ...read more

    Simple Scriptural maxims tied to our spiritual riches in Christ.

    We’re beginning a new three-part series today on Simple Living. Why this topic? First of all, the Bible teaches simple living. So from that, we know it’s important. Secondly, complicated living is killing us. It’s keeping us from experiencing life the way our Creator meant for us to ...read more

    30th in a series from Ephesians. Every believer is to be a minister.

    Last Saturday, Mary and I went to the U of A football game. And as we watched that game, it reminded me of how someone once described a football game: Eleven men down on the field, desperately in need of rest, and fifty thousand people in the stands desperately in need of exercise.

    31st in a series on Ephesians. Paul gives Christians some instruction on how to avoid a faith with no depth.

    Artemus Ward, an early American humorist, once described the South Platte River in northeast Colorado as “a mile wide and an inch deep”. It would be a considerable river, he mused, if it were turned on its side. Unfortunately, Ward’s description of the South Platte River could just as easily be ...read more

    Christianity is a contact sport. The true joy and satisfaction in the journey of faith comes when we get out of the stands and onto the court. God wants all believers to get in the game and play to win!

    PLAYING TO WIN: GET IN THE GAME OPENING TEXT: “11 He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. 12 Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ, 13 until we ...read more
