Sermon: Chase What Matters – Multiply Your Faith and Leave a Legacy

Life is too short to settle for the ordinary when God calls us to something extraordinary. Pastor Chris Teien continues the series “Chase What Matters Most” with the third message: “Multiply Your Faith & Leave a Legacy.” Jesus doesn’t just call us to grow in our faith—He calls us to invest in others, making disciples who make disciples. Whether you’re new to church or have been following Jesus for years, this message will equip you with practical steps to leave an eternal impact. Together, we’ll learn how to embrace the mission by understanding the Great Commission and our role in God’s Kingdom, start where you are by sharing your faith in your immediate sphere of influence, live the message by modeling Christlike living in your words and actions, invest in the faithful by discipling those who are reliable and eager to grow, and empower multiplication by equipping others to carry on the mission of making disciples. This message will inspire and empower you to take your faith to the next level by multiplying it and building a lasting legacy.

We would love to know how we can pray for you and we would be grateful if you could help support this ministry with your financial gift.
