Serving in a church is a way to express our love for God and our love for others. In Matthew 22:37-40, Jesus tells us that the two greatest commandments are to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Serving in a church allows us to put these commandments into practice by using our gifts and talents to serve others and to glorify God. Ultimately, serving in a church is a way to participate in God's work of building His kingdom on earth. As we serve others, we become part of something bigger than ourselves and are able to make a difference in the lives of those around us.
