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.

Scripture references: Matthew 20:28/Mark 10:45, 1 Peter 4:10, Galatians 5:13-14, John 13:14, Philippians 2:3-4

COT:
I recently discovered this devotional book called The New City Catechism which is introduced by Tim Keller. If you know me, you know that I have a thirst for truth and knowledge, especially when it comes to the things of God and reality. Also, you know that I’m 50 and in order to pay respect to this old brain of mine, I have to keep it in working condition. That brings me to…

Catechisms. What are they?

Catechisms are statements of faith written in the form of questions and answers. Derived from the greek word katechein which means ‘to teach orally or to instruct by word of mouth”.

This book has 52 questions and answers, for 52 weeks of the year. It’s based on and adapted from some old reformation-era catechisms, which used to be very common to practice for Christian growth and training. They are divided into 3 parts: 1) God, creation and fall, law, 2) Christ, redemption, grace and 3) Spirit, restoration, growing in grace.

For example:

Q: What is our only hope in life and death?
A: That we are not our own but belong, body and soul, both in life and death, to God and to our Savior Jesus Christ.

Q: How can we be saved?
A: Only by faith in Jesus Christ and in his substitutionary atoning death on the cross; so even though we are guilty of having disobeyed God and are still inclined to all evil, nevertheless, God, without any merit of our own but only by pure grace, imputes to us the perfect righteousness of Christ when we repent and believe in him.

So, if you are a believer why not memorize some truths and solidify the foundations of your beliefs today? Memorize the new catechisms!

COT:
At church we were encouraged to do a Personal Growth Plan and choose a word for the year. My church chose Power. It’s tied to Acts 1:8.

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”” Acts of the Apostles‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Live in POWER in 2025
P – Prayer
O – Obedient
W – Worship
E – Evangelism
R – Rest

Our declaration is, “I declare I have received God’s power and it defines who I am.”

Let me know if you want me to send you the growth plan.

I chose Presence: the state or fact of existing, occurring, or being present in a place or thing.

I encourage you to choose a word. Pray over it, Google Bible verses tied to the word, etc. I’ve found several verses and I’m trying to nail down the one I want to go with.

Let us know what word you choose:
Possible words:
Warrior
Champion
Love
Perceiver
Empowered
Happy
Elevate
Breakthrough
Prepared
Presence
