This document discusses the importance and significance of serving in the Christian life. It makes three main points: 1. Serving is a spiritual activity regardless of whether it is manual labor, practical work, preaching, or frontline ministry. 2. Practical ministry serves to attract and impact society, and compliments preaching the word of God to make the gospel more powerful. Serving was Jesus' top priority. 3. Christians should encourage one another to love and do good deeds, as their lives and love are shown through their actions. God will reward believers for the good they do for others.
