The Long Fork | Dr. Tom Pace | 5.10.26

This sermon explores the biblical command to "serve one another" as part of the broader teaching on "one anothering" found throughout the New Testament. Dr. Pace challenges the self-serve culture that dominates modern life and calls believers to embrace an interdependent community where serving and being served are both acts of grace. Using the metaphor of a "Christian fork" that requires mutual feeding, the message emphasizes that true Christian community involves both the humility to serve others and the grace to allow ourselves to be served. The sermon traces the arc of life from infancy through old age as a journey of learning to serve and be served, encouraging believers to ask "What can I do?" rather than being overwhelmed by all that needs to be done. Ultimately, the message defines greatness through Jesus' teaching that the greatest among us is the servant of all, making greatness accessible to everyone who serves with a heart full of grace and a soul generated by love.
