Kingdom culture is a series through the cultures of our Church! We believe these are cultures that should characterize a healthy Christian! If a Christian is producing these characteristics in their life then they are more than likely growing in their relationship with Jesus. This week is the culture of Serving! These passages show us God’s heart for us as Christians and what it looks like to serve in His Kingdom.


What do these passages teach us about God?  (What’s the God shot in these passages?)


What does Jesus’s teaching in Matthew 23:1-12 teach us about the right motivation for serving?


What does Jesus's example in John 13:1-17 teach us about how he wants us to live our lives as believers? 


1 Peter 4:7-10 What does this teach us about living with the end in mind and how to use the gifts that God has given us for eternal purposes?


What is your next step when it comes to being a servant?
