In this teaching, Steve Wilkins concludes a series on foundational Christian discipleship by presenting evangelism as the natural overflow of God’s heart through His people. He emphasizes the eternal value of every person and the church’s calling as ambassadors of reconciliation. Rather than treating evangelism as a task or program, he frames it as a shared identity shaped by love for God and others. The message explores how God actively pursues the lost in different forms of brokenness—whether wandering, ignorance, rebellion, or self-righteousness—through the themes illustrated in the parables of the lost sheep, coin, and sons. Ultimately, evangelism is portrayed as both a responsibility and a joy rooted in participation in God’s redemptive mission and expressed through everyday life.

In this teaching, Steve Wilkins explains that discipleship is the normal Christian life, not an advanced level. Drawing from Luke 14 and Luke 9, he describes discipleship as daily surrender—denying self, taking up the cross, and following Jesus in every area of life. He challenges a Western model that often emphasizes decisions over transformation, calling instead for lives shaped by ongoing obedience and closeness to Christ. He also outlines discipleship as a journey of maturity, from new believers to spiritual parents who reproduce faith in others. Finally, he highlights the importance of community, where believers are shaped through relationships with those ahead, beside, behind, and outside the faith.

In this message, Steve Wilkins explores worship as the “sound of the Church,” beginning not with expression but with sacrifice. Through Genesis 22 and the story of Abraham and Isaac, he shows that true worship starts with surrender—trusting God more than the gifts He gives and offering our lives as a living sacrifice.

He then develops worship through the believer’s identity as a royal priesthood, called to live continually in God’s presence, and through the example of David, whose life reflects worship as both devotion and expression. Worship is shown to include intimacy, repentance, spiritual warfare, and joyful praise. Ultimately, worship is presented as a way of life: the sound of a surrendered people whose hearts and actions reflect God’s presence and movement in the world.

In this message, Steve Wilkins walks through Acts 2:42 and the early believers’ devotion to four core practices: the apostles’ teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, and prayer. He explains that these rhythms were not simply religious habits, but the foundation of a new kind of life together shaped by Jesus. Fellowship is presented as real shared life in Christ, breaking bread as participation in his covenant work, and prayer as ongoing connection with God. Together, these practices move the Church beyond information into transformation, forming a Spirit-shaped community that reflects the life and unity of Christ in everyday life.

In this message, Steve Wilkins teaches that generosity is not just something the Church does, but a reflection of God’s own nature. From the beginning of Scripture, God is revealed as freely giving, and people made in His image are invited to reflect that generosity in how they use their time, talent, and resources. He explains how tithing forms trust in God as provider and reorders our dependence away from the world’s systems. Offerings are then presented as an expression of faith and sacrificial love, while stewardship turns what we have into a means of worship and service. Together, these practices form a culture of generosity that reflects God’s heart to the world.
