Don’t Stay a Baby Christian — Grow Into Your Calling! by Ps Wayman Mitchell | WAYMAN WEDNESDAY

SummaryPastor Mitchell preaches a powerful missions rally sermon about spiritual growth, first love, and God’s global vision for the Church. From Ephesians 4, he challenges believers to grow beyond spiritual infancy, embrace their calling, and rise up for world evangelism. Using vivid illustrations like bonsai trees, fishbowls, and missionary heroes such as William Carey and David Livingston, Pastor Mitchell reminds us that everything God touches must grow. Don’t stay the same—let God expand your vision and step into your destiny.Chapters00:00 – Intro: Wayman Wednesday on Taking the Land Podcast01:30 – Discipleship and native pastors in the islands02:30 – Growth vs. spiritual immaturity04:25 – Ephesians 4: Growing up in Christ05:40 – First love: milk vs. solid food07:15 – “You’ve left your first love” – Revelation warning08:00 – Hudson Taylor’s grave and the road not taken09:45 – Love in the arena of life11:15 – Loving people vs. loving the world13:10 – Vision and personal growth potential14:15 – Bonsai tree, fishbowl, and bound feet illustrations16:30 – The power of associations: “Who you hang out with”17:25 – Oxygen mask and choir heartbeat illustrations19:30 – Unlimited potential in Christ21:20 – Jesus grew in wisdom, stature, favor with God and man23:10 – The danger of self-obsessed generations26:30 – God’s global vision for the Church27:45 – Peter and Cornelius: Gospel to the Gentiles28:55 – William Carey: the father of modern missions30:05 – David Livingston’s call to Africa31:15 – Romans 10: How shall they hear without a preacher?32:40 – Discipleship: the key to world evangelism33:20 – The “absurd” world revolution of a small fellowship34:30 – Call to rise up into your destiny35:20 – Final altar call and closing prayerShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!
