    The Greatest

    Contributed by W Pittendreigh on Sep 23, 2006
    based on 40 ratings

    If we want to be the greatest disciple, greatness will not be found as the world defines it, but in servanthood and in embracing the least of God’s children.

    Sports fans will know that Muhammad Ali today is called the greatest. Ali himself used to tell everyone “I am the greatest,” but not everyone agreed, especially when he was younger. He became the greatest in the eyes of the world over the last 40 years. Muhammad Ali ...read more

    God And Children

    In contrast to the ambition to acquire the applause and approval of men, Jesus turns his disciples toward the powerless -- toward children -- as exemplars of Himself, His Father, and the ones his disciples should seek to serve.

    Psalm 54, Wisdom 1:16 - 2:22, James 3:16-4:6, Mark 9:30-37 Apostles, Christians, and Children Sometimes, the disciples of Jesus don’t come off very well in the gospels, and today’s Gospel lesson is one of those times. Jesus tells them again, as he is doing more and more often at this point in ...read more

    A sermon about greed, materialism and the Prosperity Gospel.

    Time magazine’s cover story this month was entitled, “Does God Want You to Be Rich?” The header said, “A growing number of Protestant evangelicals raise a joyful Yes!” The article opens with the story of George Adams, a man from Ohio who had lost his factory job. His reaction to the job loss ...read more

    The Hidden World Of Service

    The contrast couldn’t be more stark. Jesus describes his ultimate act of service while the disciples argue over which of them will be the greatest! This sermon stealthily plunges the listener into this contrast; then pulls them out on the right side.

    My dear friends in Christ, I want to tell you about something that I didn’t really begin to figure out until I was about 24. Many of you figured it out long before you reached that age; some of you have not figured it out yet. But when someone finally does learn it, and it begins to sink ...read more

    Jesus talks about growing in stature, but he is not talking about height. He is talking about growing in servanthood.

    Growing in the Right Direction Mark 9:30-37 September 24, 2006 Depending on whom you talk to and who does the measuring, there is any number of different ways to measure a human being. If we wanted to get into an existential discussion of humanity, we would probably remember these famous maxims. ...read more

    On The Road With Jesus

     | 2,113 views

    Jesus taught the disciples but they did not always understand! This short homily encourages listeners to ask questions; it also reminds us that God knows about everything we do; and that is both comforting and challenging.

    Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin! Of course, it is always likely that God’s word will make us uncomfortable! When we turn to God’s word, seeking the voice of God, there is always plenty to hear; and this short Bible event is packed full of God’s wisdom, and God’s call to us. Jesus ...read more

    To be effective in ministry, let us not focus too much on self but rather be concern for the welfare of others.

    To be effective in ministry, we need to learn one thing – don’t take yourself too seriously. Don’t be too bothered about how people see you or treat you. Get over yourself. Don’t get stuck inside your own ego, because over time it will become your prison. It is amazing that while Jesus was ...read more

    How are we children of God? What would it look like for you to act like a child of God?

    [I started out this sermon by telling a story about getting a cheesesteak at Angelo’s in King of Prussia, PA- I can’t do the story justice here] Mark 9:30-37 A Child’s Welcome Mark 9:30-37, They left that place and passed through Galilee.

    Hospitality Toward One Another

    Service to others as a reflection of Christ’s love, even as we ourselves become tired of service and look forward to being served and desire attention.

    When you were a child, perhaps you were part of a large family, there may have been many people who needed to use the bathroom, many mouths to feed, and never, ever, any private space. In families such as those, there are often a lot of rules. Don’t pester the adults. Do your chores, help out ...read more
