Pastor David Engelhardt preached on the true mission of the church, which is to equip the saints for the work of ministry, not just to grow in numbers or focus only on evangelism. He contrasted worldly systems like socialism with the Kingdom of God, emphasizing that God’s kingdom is built on freedom, virtue, and responsibility. Preaching from Matthew 7, he explained how Christians are called to judge, not hastily or judgmentally, but righteously, with truth and gentleness. He also warned against casting “pearls before pigs,” urging believers to guard sensitive, life-giving gifts, dreams, and testimonies. Ultimately, he called the church into a season of action, to ask, seek, knock, and advance God’s Kingdom through equipping, evangelism, and faith-filled obedience.
