The Generous Life (Serving)

Feb 1, 2026    Jon Jackson

Biblical generosity extends far beyond financial giving to encompass how we serve others with our whole hearts. True generosity is measured not only by what we give, but by how willingly we serve.


As stewards of God's grace and gifts, we're called to use our abilities, time, and energy to serve others sacrificially, just as Jesus modeled when He washed His disciples' feet. Generous service costs us something—time when we're busy, energy when we're tired, and comfort when we'd rather stay safe.


When we serve beyond convenience, without recognition, where there's need, with faithfulness, and with joy, we make the Gospel tangible and allow God to use ordinary acts of service to produce eternal results.
