Stop Playing Status Games | Jesus on Humility and True Greatness
Description
We live in a world obsessed with climbing the social ladder—whether at work, online, or even at church. But Jesus turns it all upside down: “Everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted” (Luke 14:11 ).
In this sermon, Pastor James Huenink unpacks Jesus’ teaching at a feast, showing how our exhausting pursuit of status leads nowhere. Instead, we look to Christ, who humbled Himself all the way to the cross—and was exalted to the highest place. Through His death and resurrection, He calls us to a life not of self-promotion, but of service, love, and eternal hope.
📖 Key Text: Luke 14:1–14
✝️ Theme: True humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less.
🙌 In Christ, the humble are lifted up.
