- Description
- Hill preaches on the theme of power and authority. Within ecclesiastical leadership, church ministry presents opportunity for authority and power to be expressed for personal gain or service of the church. Mark 10: 32-45 illustrates the 12 Disciple's struggle with their impulse toward positions of power for personal gain and glory. Desire for personal gain has no part in the lives of those who follow Jesus; sinful hearts and institutional structures present opportunities for self-seeking glorification. The Christian leader should recall 1 Peter 5:1-3, which calls for humble-hearted service. Part of the series "Our concepts of God and ourselves."
