Mark 10:32-45

Join us for the thirty-first installment of our expository series, "The Book of Mark," as Pastor Charlie Miller explores Mark 10:32-45 in the sermon titled "Upside-Down Greatness." Discover how Jesus leads with courage toward Jerusalem, knowing the cross awaits, while His disciples still misunderstand the nature of His kingdom. Pastor Charlie examines James and John's audacious request for positions of honor right after Jesus predicts His suffering, revealing how we often seek recognition and reward rather than sacrifice and service. Learn how Jesus redefines greatness in God's kingdom — not as climbing a ladder over others, but as taking up a cross to serve them. Be challenged to examine your own heart as Pastor Charlie contrasts the world's model of domination with Jesus' radical call to serve, submit, and lift others up. This powerful message will inspire you to flip your thinking from "me first" to "others first" and discover what it truly means to follow the King who gave up everything to serve and save us.
