About this episode

This episode explores the concept of Jesus as a different kind of King who exemplifies humility and service.

Most people want a king who conquers. But in the Gospel of Mark, we meet a very different kind of King. Jesus is the One who came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many. Instead of avoiding suffering, He walked straight toward it. Instead of demanding power, He laid it down. Instead of taking a throne, He carried a cross. And if Jesus is our King, then following Him means more than believing the right things—it means embracing the same humility, sacrifice, and servant-hearted love He demonstrated.5 Day Reading Plan: https://shorturl.at/Y04si
