042 - Become A Better Christian By Helping Others

A core belief of Christianity is helping other people. But how can we do that to become a better disciple of Jesus? Find out on today’s episode of Changing. 

Be anxiously engaged in a good cause.

  • Anxious, in this case, means excitement and eagerness for a cause.

  • Engage in something bigger than yourself, like sharing the gospel, serving in the military, or even donating time or money to a charitable organization.

  • Working for a cause bigger than you benefits humanity. After all, the goal isn’t to help you but to help others. 

Moroni 7:47- Charity is the pure love of Christ.

  • The book Preach My Gospel, a manual for people doing missionary work, words it well, reminding people to avoid judging or criticizing actions and to understand the point of view of others instead.

  • It is in Matthew 22:36-39 that Jesus says the most important commandment is to love God and to love people. It’s a mandate and a commandment that we should strive to obey. 

How can you help those around you?

  • Minister to those you’re assigned and serve your responsibilities at church.

  • Read scripture to someone, or offer to drive people to church.

  • Tutor and help others with their goals.

  • Index with the Church of Latter-Day Saints.

  • Call someone and check in on them, or visit them if it’s safe to do so.

  • Trust the youth and give them the responsibility.

  • Visit JustServe.org to find volunteer opportunities in your community.
