Bobby Bosler shares a simple Christmas challenge from Mark 10:45: Jesus came not to be served, but to serve. With Christmas break and “time off,” it’s easy to drift into an entitlement mindset, but Jesus’ coming calls us to a different posture. This episode urges young people to make Christmas break a season of joyful, intentional ministry at home, in the church, and in the community.

• Snow culture shock: Wisconsin vs. the mountains of West Virginia
• Why Mark 10:45 is a “Christmas verse” in context
• The temptation of “me-first” living during breaks and holidays
• Entitlement at home (parents, siblings, routines, expectations)
• Serving practically in your local church during Christmas events
• “Don’t be a jerk this Christmas”: choosing humility and helpfulness
• Total surrender expressed through ministry that benefits “many”

• Jesus had every right to be served, yet He chose to serve. Follow His example.
• Christmas break is a gift, not a license to drift into selfish patterns.
• The most encouraging thing you can bring home is a servant spirit.
• Serving your family and church is not “extra,” it’s part of living surrendered.
• A Christ-centered Christmas looks like giving yourself for the good of others.
