“Don’t selfishly try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others too.” – Philippians 2:3-4 (CSB)
Selfless service means putting the needs of others above our own, just as Jesus did. It’s not about seeking recognition or praise but about reflecting God’s love through acts of kindness, humility, and generosity. True selflessness brings glory to God and blesses those we serve.
This week, let’s focus on how we can practice selfless service within our ministry, going above and beyond to bless others.
For musicians, selfless acts might include stepping in to help a teammate, being patient with changes during rehearsal, or willingly adapting your part for the benefit of the group. These small gestures reflect a Christ-like attitude in your service.
For the tech team, selfless acts could involve covering for a teammate, staying late to resolve technical issues, or offering help to musicians or leaders without being asked. Your willingness to go the extra mile strengthens the team and reflects God’s love.
Personal Reflection: Pray and ask God to show you opportunities to serve selflessly this week.
Team Reflection: Share examples of selfless acts within the team and how they’ve impacted your ministry.
Sunday Preparation: Look for one specific way to serve someone on your team selflessly during Sunday’s service.
