Using Your God-Given Gifts with Grace - Charles Martin - 99 - FrontStage BackStage with Jason Daye FrontStage BackStage with Jason Daye - Healthy Leadership for Life and Ministry

    • Christianity

In ministry, what is a healthy approach to embracing the unique gifts and voice that God has entrusted to us without overshadowing what God longs to do in us, through us, and even in spite of us? In this week's conversation on FrontStage BackStage, host Jason Daye is joined by Charles Martin. Charles is a New York Times and USA Today best-selling author. In fact, one of his novels was optioned and turned into a major motion picture. Charles is a devoted Christ follower and a fellow traveler on the pilgrimage of faith. Charles's most recent book is based on a true story that we're all familiar with, entitled It Is Finished. Together, Charles and Jason look at letting God fully use what is uniquely you while avoiding the temptation to elevate yourself beyond what God desires. What does that balance look like in our lives in ministry? Charles then takes us backstage and shares some honest insights about navigating disappointments, criticism, critique, and fear.

Some key takeaways from this conversation:

Charles Martin on the interconnectedness of Christ's death and resurrection: "You can't get to the empty tomb without going into the shadow of the cross."

Charles Martin on the humility and simplicity in one's actions: "I still feel a little bit like the Little Drummer Boy. I mean, I'm just trying to play my drum for the King."

Charles Martin on the human inability to save oneself from sin and the need for a savior: "We need a rescuer… we can't do it. The only thing you and I bring to the cross is the sin that causes us to need it in the first place."
