Not only do we mature individually when we serve others, we also grow as a body.

Corporate Renewal…Hands-on service enriches us as a church body because:

1. It helps us to think of the church as a community that lives out the gospel as opposed to an institution where programs are held.
2. It helps the church community begin to see and meet true need within the church community.
3. It forces us to face outwardly, seeing the needs of those outside the church community.
4. It drives the community to a deeper excitement and hunger for God’s Word as we see it lived out in community life.
5. It enlivens our worship gathered on Sunday mornings because Sunday morning worship is seen rightly as one expression of worship that should flow from our lives of worship throughout the week.

Are there other ways that you have experienced corporate growth as you have served together with God’s family, the church?
