Week One
Jesus Came to Serve
Why do we serve?
Begin with Jesus, who did not come to be served but to serve. Discover why Christian service is a response to grace rather than a way to earn God’s love.

Called to Serve
Following the Way of Jesus Through a Life of Faithful Service
Why do Christians serve? What has God placed in our hands? How does serving change us? And how do we keep serving without burning out? This six-week journey explores service as a response to the grace of Jesus and as a lifelong posture of love, stewardship, and faithfulness.
Central Conviction
We Serve Because Jesus First Served Us
Christian service is not a way to earn God’s love or prove our worth. We serve because Christ has already loved and served us, and we offer what God has entrusted to us for the good of others and the glory of God.

Receive, Reflect, and Serve
Begin With Jesus
Allow Scripture to shape your understanding of service around the example, grace, and character of Christ.
Examine Your Life
Use the reflection and discussion questions to consider motives, gifts, opportunities, limits, and the kind of servant God is forming you to become.
Serve Practically
Each lesson ends with a concrete response so that service becomes more than an idea and begins shaping everyday life.
Series Scripture
“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”Mark 10:45
