God has entrusted you with time, talents, and treasures. The question is are you stewarding them well, or wasting them on things that will not last?In this sermon, Pastor Grant unpacks Jesus’ parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14–30 and shows how stewardship is not optional. It is the daily discipline of using what belongs to God for His glory.You will learn:- Why you are a steward whether you want to be or not- How everything you have belongs to God and must be used for Him- The difference between failing honestly and faking it spiritually- How to live in a way that leads to hearing, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”📖 “His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’” (Matthew 25:21 ESV)If you have ever felt stuck in your walk with Jesus or struggled to stay disciplined in your faith, this message will equip and challenge you to take the next step.🔔 Subscribe for more sermons and resources to help you put First Things First in your walk with Jesus.🔥 www.granttoddministries.com

“Evangelism is a command for all Christians.”

With that challenge, Pastor Grant launches Week 4 of the Spiritual Disciplines series and walks through Luke 5:17-26 to show how four determined friends literally “climb up on the roof … and dig a hole” to get their paralyzed friend to Jesus.

📖 “But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he said to the man who was paralyzed—“I say to you, rise, pick up your bed and go home.” Luke 5:24 ESV

In this message you’ll discover:

1️⃣  Evangelism sees inability yet searches for opportunity, turning obstacles into openings.

2️⃣ Creativity blossoms when plans get cancelled, because sharing Jesus rarely happens in perfect conditions.

3️⃣ Doing for others what they cannot do for themselves is the heartbeat of disciple-making friendship.

If the thought of speaking up makes your pulse race, remember Pastor Grant’s reminder: “On the other side of the problem of your fear to share Jesus is their eternal life with Him.” Lean in, take notes, and get ready to carry someone to the feet of Jesus this week.
