Spiritual Brokenness

James Rochford

John 12:12-36

In order for a kernel of wheat to bear fruit, it must fall to the ground and die. It needs to be broken open. So too, do followers of Jesus need to be broken to bear fruit. Jesus uses the difficult circumstances that come into our lives to break our outer selves to let the light of Jesus to shine through.

John the Baptist

Brian Adams

John 1:19-37

John the Baptist testified that he was not the Messiah but that he was paving the way for Him. He cultivated a lifestyle of humility by never trying to any fame for being the Messiah's announcer. We can cultivate a mindset of humility by thanking God for who He is, by learning what God says about us, and considering how to serve others.

The Pharisee and the Publican

Patrice McCormac

Luke 18:9-14

While the Pharisee exalted himself, the tax collector humbled himself before God and was declared righteous. Pride ignored prevents us from experiencing God's love and care. Pride leads to exalting oneself which leads to being painfully humbled, but humbling oneself leads to being exalted by God.

Leadership and Humility

Mike Sullivan

1 Peter 5:1-7

Peter teaches that the most effective component of leadership is humility. The path to leadership isn't up, but down. Leaders who know how to humbly follow other leaders make better leaders. God graces humble leaders with protection, empowerment to serve, and many other good things. Whether you desire to become a leader or not, we all are called to "clothe (our)selves with humility."
