Christ-Centered Service

Part 1 in a series of sermons that will explore service and care within our local congregations. As a starting point, we must explore and understand Christ-centered service and consider how our approach to service should emulate that of our Lord and Savior. Service and love is part of the very nature of God. God is love and God is the one who continually serves all of mankind. Christ-centered service demonstrates the greatest level of spiritual conversion because it directly follows Christ's example of love and service. Becoming a Christ-centered servant should be our goal as a Christian as we strive to develop qualities consistent with our Savior, Jesus Christ.
