As the church is trying to recover from the pandemic, many church leaders are asking how they can lead people back to serving.

The answer is simple: Amid the uncertainty, we need to return to the basics of discipleship and service. By doing so, we will show people the power of community and the joy of serving others. 

Perhaps we have forgotten to emphasize that serving others is also serving God. And when they serve the Lord, they are fulfilling their purpose. We have spent far too much time telling people what to do and far too little time teaching them why they should care about serving others.

It's in the service of others that we find our greatest joy and our deepest purpose. It's in the service of others that we find our greatest fulfillment. 

In this episode, our guest Shawn Wood, the Lead Pastor of Freedom Church, will take us through the practical ways to motivate people to serve others. He will also talk about the pandemic's impact on the church and how leaders can use this as an opportunity to step up, serve, and lead people in the right direction. 

“When you're doing what God has called you to do, you don't need a lot of other motivation. If we can get people in that position, where they're being fed by the fact that they're doing what God has asked them to do, then then they're going to show up anyway.”
