Ordinary, Faithful, Cruciform Leaders

October 15, 2017 Speaker: Mark Lauterbach Series: 1 Corinthians

Topic: Sunday Morning Passage: 1 Corinthians 3:18– 4:16

Theme: The crucified and exalted Messiah adds to and strengthens his church through the work of ordinary, faithful, cruciform leaders.

Introduction

I. Ordinary Leaders, not Rock Stars

 

II. Faithful Servants, not Motivational Speakers

 

III. Cruciform Examples, not Prosperity Preachers

 

Conclusion:

 

Questions to consider:  Have you placed too much hope in human leaders? How do you evaluate or criticize your pastors, elders, deacons? What would it look like to evaluate leaders by one principle: are they faithful to the Word of the One who sent them?
