We often want a detailed blueprint, but God gives us a path. His will is not just about where we go but who we become.

Before we can discern God’s will, we need a heart that can delight in God’s will.

April 13 – The Power of Surrender | Rica | Baptism Sunday 

Scripture: Mark 11:1-11 

Big Idea: Jesus’ triumphal entry was a paradox of power—He ruled not with force but by surrendering His life for the sake of others. Servant leadership means sacrificing for the good of those we serve. 

True greatness comes through humility. Jesus, the King of Kings, washed His disciples’ feet, redefining leadership as serving others with love and humility. 

Jesus didn’t lead alone—He empowered His followers to be part of His mission. Servant leadership involves calling others into the work, believing in their potential, and multiplying impact through collaboration. 

Servant leaders cannot pour out without first being filled. Jesus modeled the power of withdrawing for prayer and solitude, showing us that staying connected to God fuels our ability to lead and serve. 

Knowing who you are and why you’re here is the foundation of servant leadership. Jesus led out of the security of His identity as God’s beloved Son and His calling to bring good news to the world.
