How to Serve, Lead, and Impact One Person at a Time – Episode 568

In this episode, I’m diving into the power of serving the person right in front of you. As someone who’s run businesses with thousands of clients and students, I’ve learned it’s not about the big numbers—it’s about the one. Today, I’m sharing biblical examples, from Zacchaeus to the bleeding woman, that show what it looks like to stop for the one, and I’m giving practical ways you can do this in your business and personal life.

You’ll leave this episode inspired to be present, intentional, and faithful with the people God has placed right in front of you.

Faithful with the Few: Serving Small, Impacting Big

Here’s what I want you to know about serving small, thinking big, and trusting God along the way:

Think Big, Serve Small
While growing a business or ministry, it’s crucial to focus on the one person you can impact, not just the masses.
Biblical Examples
Jesus shows us through Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10), the bleeding woman (Luke 8:43-48), the Samaritan woman (John 4), and the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:30-37) the importance of noticing and serving the overlooked or desperate.
Practical Sacrifice in Service
Serving someone may require your time, energy, or money—sometimes in unexpected ways.
Be Interruptible and Present
Let God interrupt your schedule for someone in need. Be attentive, remove distractions, and listen deeply.
Faithfulness with the Few
One person isn’t too small to invest your best effort and overdeliver in love and service.

How to Turn Small Acts into Big Impact: Practical Takeaways

Pray Over Your Work and People – Ask God who He wants you to serve each day and expect Him to highlight that person.
Add Extra Touches – Handwritten cards, birthday or anniversary notes, personal messages, or small surprises can make a big impact.
Personal Video Messages – Send short messages to clients, team members, or students to let them know they’re seen and valued.
Serve Your Team’s Dreams – Understand their goals and ambitions, then create opportunities and training to help them succeed.
Create Serving Opportunities in Business – Organize volunteer events or community service projects for your team and clients to experience the joy of serving.
Acknowledge Every Person – In online programs, challenges, or group settings, respond to every post or engagement so no one feels overlooked.
Be Intentional in Small Interactions – Even if only one person shows up, serve them with excellence—it could lead to referrals or lasting impact.

Scripture Mentioned

Luke 15:4-7 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.”
