Host Forward Living

Our role is to be hosts in God’s house, not consumers of spiritual gifts.

At Forward Church, we invite you to embrace the theology of being a host rather than a guest.

This sermon challenges believers to transition from being passive consumers ("guests") in church to active participants ("hosts") in God's kingdom. The pastor emphasizes that being a child of God is not defined by religious activities or church attendance, but by being led by the Spirit. Drawing from Romans 8 and 1 Peter 2, the message calls Christians to recognize their royal priesthood and understand that God's Spirit joins with their spirit to affirm their identity. The sermon addresses "imposter syndrome" in the Christian walk—the feeling of not being good enough—and reminds believers that they are destined to have testimony through their brokenness. The core message is that believers must move from wondering about their purpose to actually being who God has called them to be, serving others and pointing them to the Father rather than seeking personal glory.
