Get Over Yourself
Humility wasn’t esteemed in the ancient world until Christianity came along. Today, we claim to admire humble people, but we don’t reward them. To truly follow Jesus is to become truly humble, and that is a quality that can be seen in the way we interact with others.
The Sermon on the Mount is often acclaimed (even by non-Christians) as the greatest moral teaching ever presented. It dares us to dream of the world-changing things that could happen if we began to walk like Him.
If we are the Temple where redemption happens, what is our plan to draw people to Him? The answer is to relearn an ancient, almost forgotten practice: Hospitality. In a time when loneliness is an epidemic, when few people know their neighbors, something as simple as a meal together can be the starting place for something beautiful to happen.
