If You Want to be Great: Matthew 20:20-28
Jesus’ approach to power and position in the gospel of Matthew is radically different than what we might expect someone with so much authority right from the start. From beginning to end, Jesus acts and teaches differently that what people expect a person with authority ought to do, with a massive emphasis on ‘serving’. How do we apply this ‘new kingdom’ approach to our world of leadership, influence, climbing ladders of authority? Where at times have we as Christians missed these lessons the Lord meant for us to apply and experience, and the world is meant to see as an alternative?
