Improving Your Serve : The Art of Unselfish Living

---

Outline: If you're a Christian who wants to be more Christlike, how do you handle your natural selfish tendencies? It is really possible, in today's "look out for number one" world, to adopt the kind of servant lifestyle Jesus modeled for us? This was the personal conflict which motivated Charles R. Swindoll to do a two-year study on the biblical concept of servanthood. Improving Your Serve: The Art of Unselfish Living is the result of this thorough investigation. As his study progressed, Swindoll says the idea of being a servant became something beautiful and essential rather than something fearful and weird. "I not only desired it for myself, but I wanted to share with others what God was revealing to me ... "Painful through it may be for us to admit it, we're losing touch with one another. The motivation to help, to encourage, yes, to serve our fellowman is waning. Even our foundational values are getting lost in these confusing days. And yet, it is these things that form the essentials of a happy and fulfilled life." In his lively, upbeat style, Swindoll introduced you to many different aspects of authentic servanthood. He explores in depth:
- What it means to be a servant in the truest sense.
- What it takes to be a servant.
- How to think like a servant.
- The powerful influence a servant can have.
- The dangers a servant must face.
- The rewards a servant can expect.
- The internal struggles connected with learning to be a servant.
Here is a book that offers instruction on what it means to follow Jesus Christ personally. "To serve. To give. That's at the heart of it all," says Swindoll. We are to be engaged in a lifestyle that is characterized by authentic selflessness - one in which being preoccupied with the other person's needs and welfare leads us to experience genuine happiness and fulfillment. This was the lifestyle of our Lord and Master, who is the supreme model of the unselfish life.
