Are we truly living out our faith, or are we just accumulating knowledge without genuine action? Join us on "The Takeaway" as Pastor Harry Behrens delves into the profound significance of praying for God to equip the church for ministry, drawing from Ephesians 1:15-23. We discuss Paul's gratitude for the faith of the Ephesians and reflect on the necessity of embodying our beliefs through authentic actions. With a thought-provoking examination of modern churches, Pastor Behrens challenges us to evaluate whether we practice what we preach and maintain genuine connections with our faith communities.

In this episode, we also explore the divine role in leading us to faith, as underscored by the power that raised Christ from the dead, which is now at work within believers. Highlighting the importance of belonging to a unified body of Christ, Pastor Behrens emphasizes active participation in a Bible-teaching, God-fearing church. Drawing from Ephesians 4:11-16 and Hebrews 10:24-25, we discuss the gifts and roles each believer brings to the table, encouraging listeners to embrace their God-given purpose. Tune in to discover how you can foster genuine relationships and authentically live out your faith within your community.
