This Sunday, we will look again to the great example of Jesus washing his disciples feet (John 13). It's a message that should probably be preached at least once every year in every church in America.
Everything about our culture today works against what Jesus teaches us in John 13. When asked to serve at home, church, or go beyond the "call of duty" at work our first inclination is to ask "What's in it for me?"
When Jesus washed his disciple's feet, he showed us that service requires sacrifice and that it isn't about me, but what God can do through me! Great families, great teams, and great churches are made up of people who are focused on what gets done, not on who gets credit for what gets done. I'm praying that God will grant every New Lifer a new servant's heart for 2014! Join us Sunday at New Life as we consider the sacrifice of service. Pastor Tom
