    The Towel And The Throne: Greatness Redefined Series

    Contributed by Kory Labbe on Oct 25, 2025
     | 323 views

    True greatness in God’s Kingdom isn’t found in titles or positions, but in the humility of serving others. Jesus redefined leadership by trading the throne for the towel, showing us that to lead is to love through service.

    Introduction: “The CEO with the Mop” Good morning, everyone. It’s great to see you here today. We’re continuing in our “Live” series, where we’ve been looking at what it really means to be different — to live in this world, but not be shaped by it. Each week we’ve seen that following Jesus isn’t ...read more

    God’s way of "self-fulfillment" goes against the grain of our culture of Self, and allows us to be Free to Be Nothing.

    Since Christ made unity possible, let us pursue unity.

    God Himself declared that unity is not only possible but most of all powerful. Looking down at the Tower of Babel, He said: “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.”[1] Of course, God scattered those who ...read more

    Athaliah was the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel of Israel and the wife of Jehoram, king of Judah. Our goal in this study is to better understand the mistakes this wicked queen made, learn from her and thus avoid similar mistakes in our walk with God.

    Athaliah (Ath-uh-LIE-ah) was the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel of Israel and the wife of Jehoram (Jih-hoh-ruhm), king of Judah. She followed the path set by her parents and influenced her husband to "walk in the ways of the kings of Israel" (2 Kings 8:18) and worship Baal. Athaliah proved to ...read more

    The politician who sells out to special interests and who has no regard for life is not worthy of our loyalty. We need to get involved in the political process with a servant mentality.

    We have here in our church a long-standing tradition of the separation of church and state. We do not get involved in partisan politics. We do not support candidates, we do not give platforms to those running for political office. This sets us off from some other churches, where it is not at all ...read more

    based on 84 ratings
     | 10,318 views

    Mothers of today should be ambitious for their children to enter into fellowship with Jesus Christ.

    Many have tended to join with the other ten apostles in an attitude of hostility toward Salome, the mother of James and John, because of her prayer for preferential consideration for her sons. It is significant to note that while Christ corrected her He did not berate, criticize or condemn her. ...read more
