Greatness comes from serving others

Series: Paradox

Date preached: 24th March 2024

A paradox is something that appears to be impossible or untrue, but is actually true. Jesus spoke often in paradoxes. In today’s message, Matt looks at Jesus teaching his followers “whoever wants to be great will be a servant”. What did Jesus mean and what does this ancient paradox mean for us living in 21st century Australia?

Questions to reflect on and discuss from this message:

1. What do you think about when you first hear the word “servant”?

2. How does it make you feel to hear Jesus say “whoever wants to be great will be a servant”?

3. What would (or does) this kind of service to others look like in your life?

4. What is one thing you can do this week to serve others more?
