COT:

Chapter 6 of Kent Evans’ book The Manhood Journey is about serving others. Kent talks about three reasons we serve: Duty, Devotion, and Delight. While serving out of duty and devotion is good, we should strive to serve out of delight. We should take joy in using our gifts to serve others as God’s Word commands.
