Pastor Blake Hanson | 10.4.26
Jesus didn’t come to simply help us do life . He came to show us a way.
Luke 9:23 (NLT)
23Then he said to the crowd, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me.
Luke 9:46 (NLT)
46Then his disciples began arguing about which of them was the greatest.

Mark 10:42-44
42So Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers in this world lord it over their people, and officials flaunt their authority over those under them.

44and whoever wants to be first among you must be the slave of everyone else.

Romans 12:10 (NLT)
10Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.
Luke 9:49–50 (NLT)
49John said to Jesus, “Master, we saw someone using your name to cast out demons, but we told him to stop because he isn’t in our group.”
50But Jesus said, “Don’t stop him! Anyone who is not against you is for you.”
3. GREATNESS DOESN’T NEED DIFFERENCE TO BE A .
1 Corinthians 12:12 (NLT)
12The human body has many parts, but the many parts make up one whole body. So it is with the body of Christ.
4. GREATNESS WHEN GOD USES SOMEBODY ELSE.
Luke 9:23 (NLT)
23Then he said to the crowd, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me.
