Snarky Faith

The Downward Ascent of Power


Listen Later

Power is overrated.

Yet, if you look around you, you see a world scrounging for it. We want to be leaders and influencers. We want to be successful and renowned. So we spend our lives seeking power and ultimately, what we see as power becomes our God.

When we look at the life of Jesus, we see a different type of leader. He didn't see prestige or care about titles. He lowered himself. He sacrificed himself for others. He was the opposite of Christian leaders today.

Today, we'll dive into a discussion on the downward ascent into the ways and power of Jesus where vulnerability, humility, and suffering are part of the journey. We need to rethink power and power structures to live a faithful existence.

Come along for the ride as we skewer through life, culture, and spirituality in the face of a changing world.
