Adam, this is the part of “hidden potential” church folks should be taping to the pulpit. Stop preaching that greatness is born in a chosen few when the whole gospel is about fishermen, tax collectors, and nobodies who didn’t make the cut for anyone’s “gifted program.” The Raging Rooks didn’t win because they were prodigies, they won because someone lit a fire and built them a ladder. Most of us aren’t missing talent, we’re missing scaffolding. The kingdom of God isn’t built on early aptitude, it’s built on people who take what little they’re given and climb farther than anyone thought possible.
