The Power To Serve

Pastor Erwin acknowledges that at this moment you may not feel powerful right now, and you may even feel overpowered, but illuminates the hope we have in Jesus, and the power He gives us to serve one another. From 1 Peter 4:10, which states “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others,” Pastor Erwin shows us that God wants to teach us to serve with our heart postures aligned with His. This powerful message calls us to elevate our roles by taking a high level of responsibility and to serve others, not for our own gain, but to elevate those around us. Our pastor reminds us that God is the greatest servant and that Jesus has already come to serve us, so now it’s our turn to serve each other.
“There is only one purpose for the power you have been given, and that is to serve.” -Erwin McManus

A New Humanity

We find ourselves in the middle of a defining moment as not only a nation, but as humanity. In the wake of the tragic murder of George Floyd, and the social unrest, we may find ourselves filled with questions. We ask ‘Where is God in this suffering?’ and ‘What is our role in the middle of this?’ Pastor Erwin McManus refers to Ephesians 2, emphasizing that God created us to be one diverse and beautiful family. Mosaic was created with a love for diversity. Because God is creative, we were designed to enjoy his creativity in the way he made humanity. When we find ourselves in the middle of pain, it can be difficult to imagine that God is right in the middle of it with us. The truth is that God is using the pain to create a new humanity that comes together to celebrate and bring healing to one another. Everywhere that people are coming together for the good, God’s fingerprint is there.
“Jesus is standing in the middle with you right now.” —Erwin McManus
