Serve

We exist to lift up the Lord Jesus Christ. It is our desire to be a church helping people discover and use their God-given talents to serve in our church and community.

Our Goal

Every Believer Engaged In Service = Christ’s Image Clearly Revealed

When Christ was on earth, He said and did amazing things that no one had heard or seen before. When He left, He told His followers not to worry. He would send His Holy Spirit, who would not only be with them but would actually live inside them. He promised His followers they would do even greater things than He had done because of the indwelling of His Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 2:10 says, “we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” 1 Peter 4:10 says each of us should use the gifts we have to serve others. We are competent to do these good works because of the power of the Spirit of God who lives within us.

Our Serve Vision is to see every follower of Jesus Christ at Big Valley Grace engaged in service and moment by moment find those places of service God planned before the world began. We believe each time this happens, Christ’s image at Big Valley Grace is more clearly revealed. We believe His image will not clearly be revealed until every believer finds his Sweet Spot of Service.

During the S.H.A.P.E. class process and follow up sessions you will:

1)      Discovery from God's word the principles for service

2)      Discovery your God given shape for His team through a personalized one on one coaching session

3)      Be linked with three possible matching ministry opportunities and associated trainers and the freedom to pick one of the three opportunities and continue the actual ministry discovery process by engaging in service.

4)      Evaluate if a ministry match takes place. It is a match when both you and the ministry trainer/leader agree that it is a good fit. You have joy in your service and the body and ministry is built up by your service.

After you find your sweet spot of service we challenge all to consider being a part of H.I.S (Help In Serving) Team that connects all BVG servants and helps a person not yet engaged in service to find their unique place of service and provides follow up support in this life long journey of service.
