Serve: Loving Your Church with Your Heart, Time and Gifts (Love Your Church)
This book looks at the gospel of Jesus and the example of Jesus to motivate us to serve our church family sacrificially with our energy, time and gifts.
This is a great book for Christians who have grown weary over time, those who need help in identifying their gifts and gaining the confidence to offer them, and church members who are lacking the motivation to get started.
As we look to the example of Jesus, who "came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many" (Mark 10:45), we will be excited and equipped to use what God has given us to serve others with a renewed sense of purpose and joy. We will also see that we do not need to have any particularly impressive gifts or emulate anyone else in order to answer Jesus' call to love one another.
Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“In this world of swagger, Jesus calls us not to be served but to serve—him, one another, and the whole world. That happens beautifully as we come together in churches with our Lord’s servant heart. Thank you, Steve, for writing this book and inspiring all of us to give our hearts away!”
Ray Ortlund
President, Renewal Ministries
“I was so strengthened by this book. Steve Robinson gets right to the heart of many barriers church members face when we don’t know where or how to serve, or when our passion to serve runs dry. This book is chock-full of Scripture, wisdom, and helpful stories. It’s motivating rather than guilt-inducing, uplifting rather than overwhelming. Read it with your friends from church and be encouraged and equipped to start serving—or keep serving—together!”
Jen Oshman
Author, Enough About Me
“Steve points us to a critical and often underdeveloped element of life in the body of Christ: service to one another. Serving, as he points out, is an essential and inescapable part of the Christian life. Where has God placed you? How has he made you? What opportunities are in front of you? Live in light of your King, and lovingly serve him by serving those around you.”
Toni Merida
Pastor, Imago Dei Church, Raleigh, North Carolina
“Wise, clear and fortifying, here is a book that proves we can serve Christ and his church with love and joy even through the tough times. Steve Robinson shows how the gospel enables us to serve wholeheartedly, whatever our situation, even in our weaknesses and failures. Read and be encouraged!”
Michael Reeves
President of Union School of Theology
“Oftentimes, the idea of serving in our local churches comes from a posture of obligation rather than a response to the gospel. This book makes a compelling argument for a gospel-driven heart of serving others with compassion in Jesus’ name. Inspiring, impassioned and thoughtful, Serve will provoke discussions and prompt change, bringing about gospel-centered results for many years.”

President, Grimké Seminary and College; Author, On the Block
