A Question of Worship: Faithful to God’s Word

Passage: Malachi 2:1-9

The failure of leaders almost always has negative impact on those whom they lead, and nowhere is that more true than in the church. We live in a day where the failure of Christian leaders often on a large and public scale, has caused damage to the life and faith of large numbers of followers of Christ. So when God confronts the decline in honor and devotion and the rise in careless worship among his people through the prophet Malachi, it is no wonder he calls to account the priests whose calling was to lead the people to worship and walk according to God's word. And what he has to say about that calling and the failure to carry it out well, is a serious and sober warning to those who are called to spiritual leadership and pastoral ministry in the church. Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series in Malachi where God addresses the question of leadership among his people, highlighting the curse of failed leaders and the call to faithful leaders.
