Disciples serve the church. Jesus commanded his disciples to love one another as he had loved them. The implication for the Church is that disciples show their love for each other by serving each other. The church is where disciples are equipped to go out into the community to let their light shine. Disciples shine their light within the walls of the church by facilitating worship in leadership and support roles, by teaching all ages about Jesus and his love, and carrying out administrative functions that keep the church resourced for ministry.
