What does it actually look like to wash someone’s feet today?
In this episode, Callie shares a conversation from a walk with her friend Sarah from Chi Alpha that sparked a powerful question: What is the modern-day equivalent of Jesus washing His disciples’ feet in John 13? Is it cleaning up after someone? Paying for gas? Cooking a meal? Or is it something even deeper?
Together, we unpack the cultural significance of foot washing, why no one in the room wanted the job, and what it means that Jesus — the Lord of all — willingly took the position of the lowest servant. Through John 13, we discover that serving is ministry, humility is the way of Jesus, and the call of every believer is not status… but servanthood.
This episode is a reminder that the Kingdom of God often looks like doing the job nobody else wants to do.
Because at the end of the day, the question is simple:
“How can I serve you?”
