23.03.12 - A Hymn Of Humility
We all want to get ahead in life. This is true in our relationships as well. But what does it take to "move up" and become a person of significance within a Christ-shaped community? What can we learn from Jesus' approach to establishing himself as the clear leader of his peers, and what does his example teach us how to climb the relational ladder within the church? And at the end of our lives, when our friends "sing our praises", how do we make sure it's a hymn to humility?
