In this episode of *From the Pulpit*, Dr. Steven Lawson examines the nature of true greatness, focusing on Jesus' assessment of John the Baptist in Luke 7:24-30. Dr. Lawson contrasts the world's view of greatness—defined by wealth, fame, and power—with the biblical standard: faithfulness to proclaim Christ and endure suffering for His name. John the Baptist exemplifies this through his unwavering proclamation of repentance and his boldness in confronting sin, even leading to imprisonment. Dr. Lawson challenges listeners to seek true greatness by faithfully sharing the gospel and following Christ wholeheartedly.
