Serving Others

In the sermon "Serving Others," we explore Mark 10:45, where Jesus teaches that true greatness in God's kingdom is not about dominance but about serving others. The message highlights how Jesus, despite being the Son of Man, came not to be served but to serve and give his life as a ransom for many. This countercultural concept calls believers to shift their attitudes and actions, placing the needs of others above their own and following Jesus' example of self-sacrficing love.

The sermon includes the story of a corporate executive who experienced a profound transformation after coming to Christ. His newfound faith led him to prioritize ethical business practices, support his employees and community, and launch initiatives for underprivileged students. His journey from ruthless ambition to compassionate stewardship illustrates the powerful impact of living out one's faith through service, demonstrating that small, everyday acts of kindness can lead to significant positive changes.

Listeners are encouraged to adopt a servant mindset, recognizing that their worth comes from being beloved children of God. Practical steps are provided to help believers embrace servanthood, such as volunteering, offering encouragement, and making sacrifices for others' benefit. The sermon emphasizes that serving others not only makes a difference in the lives of those we help but also deepens our own discipleship, drawing us closer to Jesus, who came not to be served, but to serve.
