To think of others more highly than oneself goes against human nature and against societal norms. Yet Scripture instructs believers to live in such a way.

This is a standalone message designed to examine the life of Jesus, learning from Him in every way possible. It looks at the encounter He had with a Roman centurion as recorded by the gospel writer Matthew (8:5-13). Jesus was far more concerned about the heart of His Father than societal norms. The passage records three ways societal norms of the day were broken and in the end healing brought to a sick and dying servant.

The desire for relationship is natural and normal. However, if we don’t find our identity in a personal relationship with God through Jesus, our pursuit of having others validate us will persist.

Whether introverted or extroverted, all are made and designed for relationship.  This should not be a surprise since God is relational and people are made in His image.  This message outlines five principles key to developing and maintaining healthy relationships.

This stand alone message focuses on the encounter Jesus had with two blind men just days prior to His arrival in Jerusalem for Passover in which He would be arrested and crucified.  In a time Jesus could have been more focused on what was about to take place or on making sure His disciples knew all they needed to know, we see Jesus moved with compassion for the needs of others – a trait which was true for all of Jesus’ public ministry.
