The King's Service

What makes someone great? What do we typically look for in greatness?

Jesus redefines the nature of greatness for His Kingdom. It is a radically different kind of Kingdom with a radically different kind of King. Why do you suppose Jesus’ disciples struggled so much to understand His words and actions?

What makes you struggle to understand Jesus’ words and actions and radically embrace His kingdom and its calling? What holds you back?

How does Jesus’ death empower His people to follow Him? How does it affect your motives? How does it affect your actions?

Jesus laid His life down for even those who were His enemies. Does anyone come to mind when you hear the word enemies? What would it mean for you to love them as Jesus does?
