A core belief of Christianity is helping other people. But how can we do that to become a better disciple of Jesus? Find out on today’s episode of Changing. 

Be anxiously engaged in a good cause.

• Anxious, in this case, means excitement and eagerness for a cause.
• Engage in something bigger than yourself, like sharing the gospel, serving in the military, or even donating time or money to a charitable organization.
• Working for a cause bigger than you benefits humanity. After all, the goal isn’t to help you but to help others. 

Moroni 7:47- Charity is the pure love of Christ.

• The book Preach My Gospel, a manual for people doing missionary work, words it well, reminding people to avoid judging or criticizing actions and to understand the point of view of others instead.
• It is in Matthew 22:36-39 that Jesus says the most important commandment is to love God and to love people. It’s a mandate and a commandment that we should strive to obey. 

How can you help those around you?

• Minister to those you’re assigned and serve your responsibilities at church.
• Read scripture to someone, or offer to drive people to church.
• Tutor and help others with their goals.
• Index with the Church of Latter-Day Saints.
• Call someone and check in on them, or visit them if it’s safe to do so.
• Trust the youth and give them the responsibility.
• Visit JustServe.org to find volunteer opportunities in your community.
