Aside from caring for your family, it might be the most important thing you can do to make a difference in the world around you, to say nothing of doing eternal good in people's lives.

This 9Marks Journal was written for members. It lays out some of the essential elements of that job-a guidebook for meaningful service in a local church. Read it one article at a time over a month. Ask God how you might better serve your fellow members, your pastors, and your non-Christian neighbors.
