Lesson 7

Bro. Don challenged believers to examine what their church membership truly means, emphasizing that church is not merely a place of habit, obligation, or personal benefit, but a place where Christians are equipped to labor for the kingdom of God. Preaching from the harvest passages of Scripture, he reminded the church that the world is full of lost and hurting people, yet there are too few laborers willing to share the gospel and serve faithfully. He stressed that every believer can be a witness simply by sharing what Christ has done in their life, and that the responsibility of reaching others belongs to the whole church, not just pastors or missionaries. Through repeated calls to prayer, compassion, and action, the message urged Christians to develop a burden for souls, support the work of the harvest, and honestly ask whether their own commitment would strengthen or weaken the church if every member lived the same way they do.
