Placed in the Puzzle: Where Do I Fit? | November 16, 2025 | Echo Church

Pastor Andy Cass A puzzle that’s 99.9% finished is still 100% frustrating — because one missing piece changes everything. You are meant to be placed in the puzzle, a unique and essential piece in the beautiful picture God is putting together. Every piece matters. Every person has purpose. God has entrusted each of us with something valuable; time, gifts, opportunities, and influence. He expects us to use them faithfully. TEXT Matthew 25:14–19, Matthew 25:21, Matthew 7:11, 2 Corinthians 9:8, James 5:16, Isaiah 55:11, Philippians 1:6, 1 Samuel 3:10 NOTES: BIG IDEA: God’s goal for your life(and leadership) is to be Productive, Effective, Successful, and Finished. -Productive in purpose -Effective in impact -Successful in obedience -Finished in faith. Big Question: How can I be considered “the good and faithful servant?” The Plan: -Leverage your strengths. -Identify your strengths. -What if God could use your S.H.A.P.E.? (Eric Rees) -Use your strengths in community — Echo Church, work, school, family.
