A Church with an Equipping Culture is…
- Being diligent to work together as a unified team (Ephesians 4:1-6)
- Doing spiritual gift assessment, affirmation & placement (Ephesians 4:7-10)
- Expecting its staff to be Equippers rather than “the Ministers” (Ephesians 4:11)
- Releasing its members to do the “work of ministry” (Ephesians 4:12)
- Seeing people become more like Christ (Ephesians 4:13)
- Producing new converts who are becoming doctrinally sound (Ephesians 4:14)
- Speaking the truth in love to one another (Ephesians 4:15)
- Experiencing growth through every member contributing (Ephesians 4:16)
