Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Servants & Stewards - Vision & Mission series.

In a moment when our culture is fractured, politics are polarized, and comfort tempts us to live as if we don't need God, we're called back to our true identity: servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. 

Drawing from Paul's words to the Corinthians, we're reminded that following Jesus isn't about grasping for power or influence — it's about picking up the oar, going low, and living faithfully in that tension. Let's embrace lives that may look like "the scum of the world" to others, yet carry eternal weight as we boldly, humbly, and sacrificially share the hope of the gospel — whatever it takes.

Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on September 14, 2025, at 9:30 am. You can find us online at nwhills.com.
