Jesus Prepares the Disciples: Will They Learn?

Summary

The sermon explores Jesus' preparation of His disciples for His suffering, death, and resurrection, emphasizing the contrast between human nature and God's kingdom values. Despite repeated teachings, the disciples struggle to grasp the concept of servant leadership, desiring positions of power instead. Jesus teaches that greatness in His kingdom is marked by humility and service, exemplified by becoming like a child and serving others. The message calls believers to follow Jesus' example of servant leadership rather than worldly ambition.
