About this book

If you're feeling joyless, weary and burdened as you serve Jesus, this book is for you!

John Hindley shows how Jesus was telling the truth when he offered people an "easy yoke"—a way of serving him that is joyful and liberating. He explains why serving is so often joyless—and how our identity in Christ changes everything.

This book will help you gain a new perspective so that you can serve God out of joy rather than duty.

Serving without Sinking...
• Is written in a personal, warm, gospel-hearted style....

Endorsements

As I was reading Serving Without Sinking I found myself in conversations with some of the very people it addresses--people who serve their church and who love to serve, but who are also growing weary. It was a joy to recommend the book to them and I anticipate that it will be a great blessing to them. And to you.

Tim Challies Blogger; author, Seasons of Sorrow

If, like me, you don’t read books much and get bogged down with Christian service, this book will help you smile. Not just because it is enjoyable, contemporary and biblical, but because it reminds us that we are served by Jesus, who—as our Master, Friend, Husband and Brother—gives us every reason not to sink, but to smile.

David Burrowes Former Member of Parliament for Enfield Southgate

This fresh, warm, honest, book did me good. It is richly filled with grace, informed by a gritty realism, and shot through with pastoral perceptiveness. There is something in it for every Christian man and woman at every stage of life.

5.00 stars Encouraging

 

A very encouraging read for those who are in full time service doing the Lords work. Uplifting and encouraging to the soul, through difficult days we must pput our hand to the plough and not to look back. For greater is He that is in us than he that's in the world. A must read for everyone.

(Review written for 'Serving without sinking (ebook)')

I first read this book when it came out, and enjoyed it, but younger in ministry I just didn't grasp some of its brilliance. Several years on and I can greater appreciate its brilliance. You see yourself as in a mirror and it's a worrying sight. Somehow John manages to help you to see your mistakes without crushing you, and gently leads you through a simple biblical understanding of the true heart of service, whilst restoring with insightful questions methods to restore the father's heart behind, and gift of service. This is a good read for all those in any ...
