Back To Basics: The Power of Serving - Week 2

In this message from our Back to Basics series, we explore the powerful truth that greatness in God’s kingdom comes through serving, not status. While the world encourages us to chase titles, recognition, and success, Jesus shows us a different way—a life marked by humility, service, and significance.

Looking at Matthew 20:26–28 and Acts 6, we see how the early church grew and thrived when ordinary believers stepped up to meet real needs. Serving wasn’t just something they occasionally did—it was who they were.

In this sermon you’ll discover:

Why success impresses people for a moment but serving impacts people for a lifetime

How the early church organized around service to multiply the mission

The difference between volunteering and living as a servant

How God can use your gifts, experiences, and willingness to change lives

The church was never meant to be a place where a few people serve and everyone else watches. Every follower of Jesus is called to make a difference.
