The Service Practice by New York Times-bestselling author John Mark Comer and Practicing the Way guides readers through one of nine core practices that form a Rule of Life for following Jesus in the modern world. Discover the freedom and joy paradoxically found in service to others.

In a world where self-interest too often takes precedence, service is a defining characteristic of those who apprentice under Jesus. The Service Practice offers a practical, accessible approach to integrating service to others into your daily life. To be used in conjunction with engaging online video content, this guide offers exercises, reflection and discussion questions, and guided readings across four sessions.

This course guide will help you experience the power of a neglected discipline as you learn to:
  • Embrace a lifestyle of love and acting on behalf of others, following the example of Jesus
  • Imitate the radical availability of Jesus and reframe interruptions as invitations
  • Value community engagement and notice the needs of others around you
  • Practice intentional acts of service where you are, starting today, in your everyday life

Discover how a life of service can lead to a transformed heart, meaningful connections with others, and a deepened sense of purpose.
