What do we need to do to serve God? It is not physical action, but transformational obedience - worship in His in dwelling Spirit, joy in Christ alone, and trust in God instead of our own wisdom and strength. It is not where we grew up (in or out of church), what race or country we hail from, or how religious we act. It is what God has done for us which we could never do, then our trust and obedience as we point to Him in all things.
Philippians 3:3-6
For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, though I also might have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he may have confidence in the flesh, I more so: circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee; concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
