It’s always good to examine ourselves and our motives. Are we serving God because we love Him and want to obey, or are we wanting extra credit for it?

In God’s Kingdom, service is more important than status.

Knowing, understanding, and applying Jesus’ teachings is critical in this age of hypocrisy.

Yes, God commands it, but what are the other reasons to serve in your church?

Your God-given creative talent will be used by the Lord, so surrender it to Him.

You can’t always blame culture for your church’s lack of growth.

You can’t do it in your own strength, but you can do something that honors God.

A church that fails to minister to the undeserving is a church without a harvest of souls.

There’s a void in the local church when you aren’t using your spiritual gift.

The Great Commission doesn’t say one word about a Christian’s church attendance.

Culture has so many false teachings that if you’re not being intentional, you’ll fall into its trap.
