Participate in the vision of FIVE39!
Serving is a critically important part of what we do at FIVE39. Jesus set an example for us in his own service to others. In the book of Matthew it says, "just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many." - Matthew 20:28
More About Serving
Serving is a practical way for us to follow Jesus’ command: “Love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you must love one another…”.
Serving allows us to express to others that we value them above ourselves, something Paul instructs us to do in Philippians 2.
Serving expresses an outward gratitude for all that Christ has done in us inwardly.
Serving enables us to meet the needs of our neighborhood, our communities, and our friends as we follow Jesus’ example of selfless love.
Philippians 2:3-8 - “Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
Galatians 5:13-14 - “For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself”
