What if the greatness you’ve been chasing is actually getting in the way of discipleship?

In this sermon, Pastor Joni exposes the uncomfortable truth that no one dreams of being a servant—yet Jesus insists that servanthood is the true mark of a faithful disciple.

From the dangerous mission Jesus gives his followers, to the shocking moment when the King kneels to wash dirty feet, this message flips our ideas of success, power, and faith upside down. It challenges us to ask whether we’ve truly walked through the door of devotion or merely hovered at the threshold—claiming to love Jesus while withholding our lives, our obedience, and our service.

Following Christ isn’t about status, convenience, or what’s in it for us; it’s about love expressed through costly, visible service that reflects the heart of the Master to a watching world.
