What makes someone truly great? Is it power, position, or recognition? In this episode, Stephen Davey explores one of Jesus’ most remarkable lessons on greatness, delivered during the Last Supper. While His disciples argued over who was the greatest, Jesus gave them—and us—a profound example of servant leadership.

By washing His disciples’ feet, Jesus demonstrated that true greatness is found in humility and service. This powerful act not only redefined leadership but also offered a practical model for how to live and lead today. Stephen explains the deeper spiritual truths behind this moment and how they apply to your everyday life.

Are you striving for greatness in your family, workplace, or ministry? This episode will inspire you to shift your focus from being served to serving others. It’s a call to embrace humility, recognizing that the most impactful leaders are those who put others first.

Tune in to discover how this simple act of service points to the heart of the gospel and the grace of Jesus, who calls us to follow His example.
