There’s a fundamental truth about the church, and that is: the church will always frustrate you if you approach it as a consumer who is trying to get something back from it. That’s why the writers of Scripture describe the church as a community of servants.

In this message we will look at the reasons we are to serve, including:

God created you to serve.

God called you to serve.

God gifted you to serve.

God changes you when you serve.

God uses you when you serve.

God rewards you when you serve.

Jesus told us his plan for his church a long time ago — “If you would be great, be a servant.” So let’s be great!
