 In Season 6, Episode 3 of the Take Off Podcast, Thomas Clark explores a question many people feel but do not always know how to name: If Jesus is Lord, what does His power actually look like? In a world shaped by control, dominance, and the misuse of authority, this episode reframes power through the life of Jesus. Drawing from Mark 10, Philippians 2, John 13, Micah 6:8, and Matthew 5, Thomas shows that Jesus does not reject power—He transforms it. His authority is revealed through humility, service, love, justice, and restoration. This episode challenges listeners to examine where they may be tempted to use influence for self-protection rather than service, and calls the Church to reflect a kind of power that heals rather than harms. If Jesus is Lord, then power in His kingdom always moves downward in love, never upward in domination.
