Scripture Text
1 Peter 2:4-10
Main Points or Ideas
- God writes amazing stories - The video and testimony demonstrate how God works through crisis and difficulty to accomplish His purposes, turning what seemed like ministry failure into growth and blessing
- The mission clarification - Through personal spiritual awakening, the mission became "Because of Christ, disciples are made and families are built," emphasizing Christ's preciousness rather than just performance and service
- The awakening process - True spiritual vitality comes from finding Christ precious and worthy, moving beyond religious performance to genuine love for Jesus as the ultimate treasure
Conclusion
God uses our lives to bring Him glory in ways we cannot imagine, and the key is awakening to the preciousness of Christ through the gospel, unloading competing treasures from our hearts, and embracing Christ as supremely valuable.
