Most ministries that end in bitterness and disaster have to do with placing the wrong people in the wrong place. God has gifted everyone differently. Therefore, we need to acknowledge the gifting of the individual and allow that gift to flourish in the church.
Too often in ministry we work too hard to satisfy the needs everywhere. Sometimes the most pressing and urgent ones are the ones we pay attention to (those whom yell the loudest). Yet needs are endless and they are everywhere. As a church, we must acknowledge the brutal reality that we cannot satisfy every need in this world or even in our church. So, the important thing is to know what God has called us to do specifically as an English Ministry.
At EFC Irvine EM, our ministry focuses on what our Lord wants us to do, because God sees our every need. But how do we know if something is His will? God will do the calling and prepare the gifted individual to fulfill the needs of our church.
We will be much happier and be more fruitful if we serve out of the gifts and strengths that God has given to us. So how do we find out what our gifts and strengths are? Great question! Let us help you DISCOVER YOUR S.H.A.P.E.!!
