Mark 9:33-41, 10:35-45 - Greatness Redefined

In this sermon, we are reminded by the disciples' foolish arguments and requests that humans have a natural desire to be great. Jesus does not raise issue with this desire, but with the fact that most people desire to be great in order to be served. Jesus addresses this selfish attitude by redefining what it means to be great and what it means to serve, presenting Himself as the ultimate example.
