Entrusted, To Be Servant Leaders
Manage episode 382276868 series 1032776
Sermon Scripture: Matthew 23:1-12
Throughout the book of Matthew these scribes and Pharisees have been on the wrong end of quite a few accusations; “They preach but do not practice!” “They lay unjust burdens upon the people.” “They do all their deeds to be seen by others.” But, with introspection, we all carry a piece of the hypocritical heart in each of us. There are many factors that feed this, but ultimately the antidote for hypocrisy is humility and grace.
When we set aside our preferences, our indulgences, our honor — and mop the floor, we not only recondition our spirits with simple satisfaction, but we might begin to feel the assurance and acceptance that we so desperately crave in the pleasure of serving others.
