How Are We To Be Servant Leaders?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on May 21, 2023

Jesus teaches about serving others. We are not to think too highly of ourselves in the service of the Lord.

In this passage of Scripture, Mark is telling us what Jesus teaches about serving others. This concurs with the story in Matthew 20:20-28. Mark records that John and James went to Jesus with their appeal; in Matthew, their mother likewise made the petition. There is no logical inconsistency in the ...read more

Overcoming Obstacles To Serving God

Contributed by Mark Mitchell on Sep 9, 2023

We all have fears that inhibit us from serving God. Fears of the world, fears of ourselves, fears of the enemy. For God gave us a spirit, not of fear, but of power and of self control. 2 Timothy 2:17 When we set aside our fears we make room for the power of God to work through us.

In Mark 14, Mark places the themes of love and hate alongside each other to create a sharp contrast. The hatred of the Jewish leaders, is followed by Mary’s loving act, which is followed by Judas’ betrayal. These stories challenge us to examine our feelings and actions toward Jesus.

Howard Ingram had an old saying, “Many Christians have just enough religion to make them miserable.” Serving God should be one of the greatest things in the world.

Have we told the unholy secretary to hold all calls? Or have we responded, “Speak, for thy servant heareth” (1 ...read more
