Authority in the church is not about power or control—it’s about building others up in the Lord. In today’s message, Pastor Bill reminds us that God entrusts leaders with authority to strengthen and edify His people, not to dominate or tear them down. Like the Apostle Paul, church leaders are called to use their influence for encouragement and spiritual growth. Whether in leadership or everyday life, how are you using the authority God has given you to uplift and support those around you?
