Can a housebound Christian mother who is never seen in public still accomplish more for God than a traveling evangelist?
Yes. Every believer has a unique role in the Body of Christ. A housebound mother can serve as a prayer warrior, and she can accomplish more for God without ever being seen than many evangelists who go from pulpit to pulpit.
Les teaches that in the Body of Christ every individual has a particular role, and every believer has been saved for a particular place of service. He gives the example of a dear lady who is never able to get out of her house, seldom seen by the public, a busy housewife and mother without the time or wherewithal to get out in public view. Yet she can be a prayer warrior and accomplish more for God without ever being seen than many evangelists who go from pulpit to pulpit. He emphasizes that every believer has a unique capability of serving God as He intended, and we are not to beg for or ask for a particular gift; it must be discerned and given as the Holy Spirit wills it.
