In this sermon we look at a proper perspective when it comes to serving in the church. We see in Peter’s first epistle the call to be like Christ who served unto death, and the necessity for us to crucify the flesh in order to truly serve. This allows us to earnestly love others and glorify God with our service. We are called to be good stewards of the varied grace given to us, so that we may be surrendered to the work of the Kingdom.
