Serving as a FriendSample

The love connection

It's quite remarkable—when you step into service, you cross paths with some incredible people. I've got friends who've devoted their entire lives to service. They're not saints or superheroes, just regular people like you and me, but they share a common trait: a deep, abundant love for their fellow brothers. They're the kind who go above and beyond, who'd walk that extra mile with someone, just like Jesus taught us.

Doing this once in a while is one thing, but God urges us to make this a daily practice, as natural as breathing. True love for others shows in the daily things we do, sparked by genuine love and compassion.

Take my friend, Debbie, for instance. She's all in when it comes to helping women who've hit rock bottom—whether they're grappling with domestic violence, addiction, incarceration, or homelessness. She started Unshakeable.org purely out of love and has touched more lives than we can count. She's teamed up with churches, judges, politicians, and businesses to amplify her mission. Debbie's just one among many who are breathing life into God's word through action.

Remember, you don't need to be rich, powerful, or educated to make a difference. The apostles themselves were ordinary folks, yet the impact of their work is still felt to this day.
