Ordinary people become extraordinary vessels when they surrender to the Holy Spirit's guidance. This powerful message by guest speaker, Jack Buskey, explores what happens when believers commit to radical obedience, regardless of how foolish they might appear to others.

Through decades of ministry experience, Jack shares vulnerable stories that reveal God's pattern of working through simple acts of faithfulness. The remarkable account of a blind baby receiving sight after a simple declaration of healing demonstrates how God honors obedience over ability. Equally moving is the story of a hardened biker who finally surrendered to Christ after three separate believers approached him—each thinking they had failed in their witnessing attempt.

The message skillfully unpacks essential truths about the local church using three primary biblical metaphors: the Bride of Christ, the Body of Christ, and an Army under orders. These compelling images challenge contemporary notions that one can follow Jesus without committed church involvement. As the speaker boldly asserts, "How can you say you accept Christ when you reject his bride?"
