    Servanthood Is Greatness Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Aug 21, 2007
    based on 10 ratings
     | 11,816 views

    In the world, greatness is determined by how many people serve you; but, in God’s kingdom, greatness is determined by how many people you serve.

    Jesus said, “The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Matthew 20:28). That was His personal mission statement. If I’m to be a follower of Christ, what marked His life should mark mine. My personal mission statement ought to be “serving ...read more

     | 7,456 views

    Service with a smile—it makes a difference not only in the person who is served but also in the one who serves.

    When you go to a restaurant to eat does it make a difference to you if the server offers a smile or not? I think most of us respond better to service with a smile. One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Johnny was staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church. The ...read more

    Willing to wash feet? Big, dirty, calloused, stinky feet? Willing to let someone else take the credit for the good job you did? What if that is what following Jesus looks like? Are you willing?

    Why Did Jesus Have To Die?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,929 views

    Jesus was not just a good man with a good example to share. He was something much more. Jesus was the substitutionary sacrifice we all need because we sinned against God and cannot offer a sufficient payment to cover our debt.

    Why Did Jesus Have to Die? I can see why the good actions of Jesus may cause some people to emulate him. I can even see that it may lead to better lives, but I cannot see how His example can change their hearts!
