Main Idea

The main idea of the sermon centered around the belief that we were created for a higher purpose and not to settle for less impact than what God intended for us. Multiplication in our lives begins with understanding our identity in Christ. Pastor Bryan pointed out that God blesses us not just for our benefit but to empower us to expand His kingdom. He reiterated that we should challenge ourselves to live out this multiplication blessing by becoming leaders and taking on responsibilities within our church and community. The focus for 2026 is on multiplying our reach, generosity, and discipleship to align with God's character. This vision calls us to recognize that we are made for more in every aspect of our lives.

Scripture References

How does the local church benefit from the establishment of specific and public visionary goals?

We are created to display God's glory, and anything that doesn't reflect this purpose is not what we were meant for.

How about your own life? Would you benefit from specific visionary goals?

Discussion Questions:

Goals are often measured by numbers; is there a potential downside to this type of measurement?

The Reverb word for 2026 is 'Multiply.' Why is this an appropriate word for our church instead of 'More' or 'Increase'?

How is 'multiply' consistent with the character of God?

The primary blessing from God was for multiplication, underscoring it as our fundamental calling as humans.

Summary

In the sermon, Pastor Bryan reminded us that we were made for more than we often settle for. He emphasized that God began the Bible by establishing our identity before giving us responsibilities. The core point was that multiplication begins with knowing our identity as image bearers of God. Pastor Bryan highlighted that we are called to see others come to know our Creator and to embrace our roles as reflections of God's glory. He shared that the first words spoken over humanity were about blessing and multiplication, which reflects our first calling. As a church, we have set our sights on multiplication in various areas for the upcoming year, encouraging us to embrace leadership, discipleship, and generosity, as we grow in our faith together.

Call to Action

Some next steps to take this week:

Let us embrace the identity God has given us and live out His calling to multiply blessings.

Join us in committing to greater generosity and leadership as we move towards our goals for multiplication.
