Today’s Topic: Serving as a Family
OVERVIEW: What is service from a Biblical perspective? What does serving look like inside and outside of the church? What qualifications do I need to serve? Why serve? What does it look like to serve as a family? How can you get plugged in to your church?
- God chose specific leaders to communicate and lead God’s people
- Jesus came as a humble servant to live and die for us
- Apostles continue the work of Jesus, leading and teaching believers and non-believers alike
- Servants take a posture of humility, doing work they don’t necessarily love doing.
- Whatever we do within the church can and should be done outside of the church. We do not just minister in a building but throughout the world. We love and serve others outside of a Sunday morning church service.
- God qualifies us for the work we are called to do. Many people are shaped and molded into the leaders they are today because of the way God prepared and equipped them as new leaders.
- We may not feel like we are good or wise enough to serve, but there is a need and we can remember that God calls us and qualifies us.
- We serve because we want to live out the Scriptures. It’s one thing to know the Word of God, but it’s another thing to apply the Word of God in our own lives.
- So what are you passionate about? How has God gifted you? Find a way to use your passions and gifts to bring God glory.
- There will always be a need somewhere. We can be reformed to be more and more like Jesus and help people know who Jesus is.
