Discover how to serve with genuine love in a time of self-interest and overwhelming need through this guide from New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer and the team at Practicing the Way.
In a world where self-interest too often takes precedence, service is a defining characteristic of those who apprentice under Jesus. The Service Practice features a practical, accessible approach to integrating service to others into your daily life. Designed to be used with four engaging video sessions freely available online, this guide offers spiritual exercises, reflection questions, guided readings, and additional resources to help you and your community.
This course guide will equip you to experience the power of a neglected discipline as you learn to:
Embrace a lifestyle of love and acting on behalf of others, following the example of Jesus
Imitate the radical availability of Jesus and reframe interruptions as invitations
Value community engagement and notice the needs of others around you
Practice intentional acts of service where you are, starting today, in your everyday life
Discover how a life of service can lead to a transformed heart, meaningful connections with others, and a deepened sense of purpose.
Part of a series of nine core practices that together build a Rule of Life for following Jesus in the modern world, each guide can be read individually or together in any order:
The Sabbath Practice
The Prayer Practice
The Fasting Practice
The Solitude Practice
The Generosity Practice
The Scripture Practice
