    The key to being a successful Mother in todays world is influence, not authority. No where else is this best seen than in the encounter Jesus had with the mother of Zebedee’s boys. Let’s examine it together!

    In the Discipline of service there is also great liberty. Service allows us to say ’no!’ to the world’s games of promotion and authority. It abolishes our need and desire for a ’pecking order’
