This study probed attitudes, values, and motivations of volunteers within Seaford Baptist Church in Seaford, Virginia through a written interview. The author analyzed data by the practical theology method of mutual critical correlation. Volunteers expressed a value for experiencing a sense of belonging, welcoming new persons onto ministry teams, experiencing a sense of shared leadership, the importance of pastoral leadership, and strong biblical motivations for ministry. The study recommends that churches not use the term 'volunteer' when describing what Christians do through their churches to serve, because of the finding that it carries implications that distort good theology.
