We don’t serve to become loved; we serve because we already are.

God moved toward us. So now, we move toward others.

Guilt, ego, comfort, fear, and comparison are powerful motivators, but terrible masters.

Dignity-driven ministry recognizes and affirms the God-given dignity already present in every person. People are not problems to deal with or projects to fix—they are image-bearers of Jesus to love and serve.

Be empowered by the Spirit, not by just proclaiming blessings, but by participating in good works unto the Lord with a living faith.

Scripture makes it clear who God’s people are called to move towards: 1. A brother or sister who is poorly clothed and lacking food. 2. The poor, the widow, the orphan, the foreigner, the sick, the condemned, the exploited, the socially despised. 3. Our enemies.

Matthew 25 reminds us that when we feed the hungry, clothe the naked, welcome the stranger, or visit the sick, we are ultimately serving Christ himself.

Scripture never forces us to choose between caring for someone’s soul or caring for their body. Our incarnate God cares for both.

Living faith produces consistent, embodied love. It’s a posture we cultivate over time.

Brokenness isn’t solved in moments. It’s healed through faithful presence over time.

Faithful service is not measured by visibility, platforms, or numbers, but by love and obedience.

“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.” — Galatians 6:9-10

You are here in Los Angeles because God has sent you here. And if God has sent you here, you are a missionary in Los Angeles for however long God has you here.

Jesus doesn’t just ask people to serve when they have time or when they feel ready. He asks people to do the inconvenient. Let's go when and where Jesus calls us.

Where is God calling you to go in costly service of his Kingdom and his people?

Feed the hungry. Comfort the hurting. See the lonely.  Point the lost to Jesus.

Mission is not just heroic moments; it’s ordinary faithfulness.

The mission of Jesus moves forward through ordinary people navigating real life.
