    In the Discipline of service there is also great liberty. Service allows us to say ’no!’ to the world’s games of promotion and authority. It abolishes our need and desire for a ’pecking order’

    In 2006 success is measured by the size of our great wealth, the popularity of our ministry, the size of our Church, In this we seem to miss the mark of being a true servant leader in the kingdom of God.. Our example in all things is the Lord Jesus himself The servant is not greater than his ...read more

    Service with a smile—it makes a difference not only in the person who is served but also in the one who serves.

    When you go to a restaurant to eat does it make a difference to you if the server offers a smile or not? I think most of us respond better to service with a smile. One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Johnny was staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church. The ...read more

    In the world, greatness is determined by how many people serve you; but, in God’s kingdom, greatness is determined by how many people you serve.

    Jesus said, “The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Matthew 20:28). That was His personal mission statement. If I’m to be a follower of Christ, what marked His life should mark mine. My personal mission statement ought to be “serving ...read more
