    Jesus isn’t saying that ambition is a bad thing, or that they/we shouldn’t aspire to be great. He’s telling them/us that true greatness is something else.

    Ann Henderson came home from her doctor’s appointment looking much the same as usual. Maybe she was a little quieter, but not enough to cause comment. The whole family was home for dinner that night, for once. She was grateful. She would only have to say it once. She waited for a moment when nobody ...read more

    “Are YOU going to wash MY feet?!” “Yes.” “Oh no you’re not!!!”

    April 06, 2024 Seventh-day Adventists traditionally practice Communion 4 times per year, not only partaking in the bread and grape juice, but also in the washing of each other’s feet = women in one room, men in another…..

    Some people have never heard of servant leadership. This message discusses the wrong attitude for leadership. It then looks at three points defining servant leadership, and it concludes with the six primary characteristics.

    Dwight L. Moody once said, “The measure of a man is not how many servants he has, but how many men he serves.”(1) This evening’s message will discuss something called servant leadership; and servant leadership is when a leader humbles him or herself to the level as those who are served.

We’ve got a Cross for Your Back Too!” And yet Jesus was this up-front. You can’t accuse Jesus of false advertising. When James and John come up to Jesus ...read more

    How Are We To Be Servant Leaders?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on May 21, 2023
     | 1,046 views

    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

    We want to follow Jesus and serve Jesus, but we have this little quirk where we expect to be rewarded for our service.

    Let’s start our time together this morning by getting a little honest … Who do you relate to best in this story? James? John? The other disciples. Or … Jesus? How many of you thought “James” or “John”? None of you, of course! Well … not so quickly, my friends. Personally, I think we’re ...read more
