Show Notes

The Bible has a great deal to say about servanthood because the central theme of the Bible is the Servant of all—Jesus Christ. “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). When we give Jesus Christ His rightful place as Lord of our lives, His lordship will be expressed in the way we serve others (Mark 9:35; 1 Peter 4:10; John 15:12-13). How can we demonstrate love for God? Our love for God will be expressed in our love for others. “For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake” (2 Corinthians 4:5). A Happy New You is one who is committed to the service of others.

 

Today’s top ten list includes ten approaches to service for a Happy New You. This includes writing to seniors through Letters Against Isolation, giving career advice through CareerVillage.org, and signing up to be a virtual tutor with UPchieve.

 

Additional scriptures referenced include Philippians 2:6-7; Matthew 28:18-20; Colossians 3:23-24; 1 Thessalonians 1:5-6; Matthew 20:26 and Luke 22:27.
