In the last letter of John, we see two different lives: one self-centered, one other-centered. While pieces of both men live inside us all, the antidote to a selfish heart isn't white-knuckled effort, but locking our eyes onto Jesus—the ultimate King who emptied Himself to serve and save us. When Christ becomes our greatest joy, our lives naturally transform into beautiful expressions of generosity and discipleship that build up the family of God.

Scripture: 3 John 1:1–12
