This LifeGuide Study includes ten sessions exploring service in a
variety of contexts: family, the physical creation, society, the city,
neighbors, relationships, the church and the workplace. Looking inside
ministry specifically, R. Paul Stevens examines examples of service that
were motivated by imagination, passion, faith, hope and love—from
Genesis to Revelation. Out of these studies you will discover how to
live and serve wholeheartedly. No matter what your profession, you are a
full time minister of Jesus Christ.
