Summary
In this sermon from Sagemont Church in Houston, Pastor Levi Skipper explores the book of Amos and the Pareto Principle, challenging the notion that only a small percentage of church members should be actively serving in ministry. Using Amos as an example, the pastor emphasizes that God intentionally uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary work, highlighting that Amos was a simple sheep herder with no formal prophetic training who was called by God to deliver a significant message. The key takeaway is that every believer has been given spiritual gifts and should be actively engaged in ministry, regardless of their perceived limitations or background.
