Reason #13 why going to church this Sunday is the best plan:  SO YOU CAN SERVE OTHERS.  Bottom line, church is not primarily a building where you go and watch a spiritual program.  Church is people – people coming together to worship God and serve one another.  Just think what a church would be like if EVERYONE showed up and waited for the others to serve them.  It would be a very lonely place!  In fact, no one would come back the next week.  NO ONE!  People are blessed in church because they find the love of God there.  But the love of God is only there when someone expresses it – by serving.  The Apostle Paul encouraged the Roman Christians in Romans 12:1… “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.”  Notice he said that acting sacrificially was an act of worship.  Worship is not just singing a song.  Worship is any way in which our behavior brings glory to God.  When you serve others in church, you are participating in an ancient tradition of exalting God by making church a beautiful and loving place.  Jesus said in Matthew 23:11, “The greatest among you will be your servant.”
