Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
As we continue in our series, "Act: What The Modern Church Isn't Doing", Kenny explains it is not the role of the pastor to fill in all the gaps. God has called pastors to devote themselves to teach His word. The percentage of partners who are actually serving in the church is low in comparison to those who attend. In American culture, if we are not excited, we are bored. If things are not new and fresh, many of us will look elsewhere.
We cannot bring the American culture attitude into the church. As followers of Christ, we are called to keep going, even and especially when the excitement has diminished. We are called to meet the need when we see the need. Our focus has to be on Christ and the message of His gospel. If we continue to be inwardly focused, the needs around us will not be seen or met. War must be waged against our internal thinking.
It is not the job of the pastor to fill the gaps. It is not someone else's responsibility to make sure everything is just the way it should be. As a believer, YOU are as responsible as anyone else to see needs and meet them.
Acts 6:1-7
