A sermon from the perspective of John, which explores that Jesus helps us see that true Christianity leads us to serving in love.

Good day, I am John Many people know me as John the Gospel writer or John the apostle who was sent to the island of Patmos as punishment for encouraging others to worship God. This punishment turned out to be a real blessing. It was on this island that God gave me a magnificent vision of what ...read more

When the disciples approach Jesus about spots in his Kingdom, he turns things upside down

A friend of mine this week said something that has resonated with me. She said that in her family, she was the designated worrier. Now, I admit, she has much in her life to be worried about, but that is her story. Our stories are different, but I can’t help but wonder if we have a designated ...read more

Monologue of the elderly apostle John, as he looks back at today's story and considers lessons learned on servant leadership.

Mark 10:35-45 Bottom-up Leadership My name is John. Yes, that John, one of Jesus’ twelve, in fact, the one he loved the most. At least that’s the way I always felt. I’m in my late ’80s now.

James and John were naturally talented and dedicated to the Lord. Their mother, just like many mothers today, wanted the best for her children, and so a few days before Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, she made a request in behalf of her children.

Two Brothers With An Agenda

Contributed by Robert Butler on Feb 14, 2022

| 2,673 views

The original disciples were no different than us in their pride until they fully understood what Jesus did for them AND only then did the commitment make sense.

Two brothers walk up to Jesus. It sounds like the beginning of a joke doesn’t it? Two brothers, often referred to as the sons of thunder, walk up to Jesus. It was just after the third time he shared that crazy statement about going to Jerusalem to die. They knew he was just trying to scare off the ...read more

The message is about what I have missed regarding the Christmas story.

Pastor asked me to deliver a Christmas message tonight.

Hypothetically, if you were in a supermarket and someone asked you, “what does it mean to be great and would that be something you desire of yourself?”

Would you stop to think what it means to be great and why this person would be asking, “me of all people?” Would we have to defer until we got home to check the internet or perhaps dust off our old copy of Webster’s…or would we have an immediate answer? Would our answer be any different if we ...read more

How Are We To Be Servant Leaders?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on May 21, 2023

| 1,044 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

For training purposes, the supervisor suddenly handed the nurse a wine glass that happened to be on a nearby shelf. The "director" asked the nurse to "lose" her thumbs by tucking them into her palms. It was uncomfortable and difficult to hold the glass.

Jesus asked James and John, “Can you drink the cup that I drink?” To answer, One can use Theology as Drama. e.g. A supervisor and a nurse did a re-enactment when a patient was going to have an operation on her thumbs the following day. The nurse asked, "Why? What's the matter with ...read more

Jesus did not want heirarchy. He was quite clear about this. Yet the church has a huge hierarchy. Why?

Koplitz Mark 10:35-45 35 James and John, the two sons of Zebedee, came up to Jesus, saying, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask of You.” 36 And He said to them, “What do you want Me to do for you?” 37 They said to Him, “Grant that we ...read more
