expectations of everyone, I have voluntarily
become a servant to any and all in order to
reach a wide range of people…

9. I didn’t take on their way of life. I kept my
bearings in Christ—but I entered their
world and tried to experience things from
their point of view.
1 Corinthians 9:19-23

10. I’ve become just about every sort of
servant there is in my attempts to lead
those I meet into a God-saved life. I did all
this because of the Message. I didn’t just
want to talk about it; I wanted to be in on
it!
1 Corinthians 9:19-23
