Unlikely Heroes: If at First You Don’t Succeed...

October 6 is the seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost and World Communion Sunday.

Join us as Pastor Paul A. Bennett begins the sermon series Unlikely Heroes and preaches from 1 Samuel 3:1-11.

Did you know that each of us has been called into ministry...that we each have the potential to transform the world for Christ?

Does this sound too idealistic for your taste, kind of like being told by your parents that “You can accomplish anything you set your mind to?’

Yet the truth is, God’s perfect plan for our lives and our potential for transforming the world are very real. We can accomplish anything for Christ that we set our mind to.

Do we still believe this to be reality? That’s the determining factor.

Despite falling short of God’s plan time and time again, Eli the priest believed it, and God still used him in a key role even when everyone else would have deemed him useless.

Unlikely for sure, but the realm of the unlikely is God’s specialty!
