This week, Pastor Brad Beers takes a looks at John 12, which discusses themes of living a fulfilled, selfless life. He sets the scene of a bustling Passover in Jerusalem, highlighting the moment when diverse crowds sought to witness Jesus’s transformative presence and the call for His glorification. The core message challenges us to relinquish self-interest—using the metaphor of a grain of wheat that must die to bear fruit—in order to truly embrace the path of discipleship and live our best lives.
What practical changes can you make this week to shift your focus from self-preservation towards service, as modeled by Jesus’s transformative example?
