ALIEN LIFE (Part 7) • "Healthy, Humble, and Alert" • Barry Bandara
Manage episode 447355381 series 2373532
This Series: 1 Peter is written to Gentile believers living in a hostile, pagan culture. Peter points believers to the HOPE they have in the midst of their suffering that is fueled by the HOPE of the return of Christ.
This Week: Peter closes his letter with a gentle admonition to church leaders. The lowest leverage of leadership is one’s title. Too often, ministry leaders “lord” over their ministry out of selfishness, pride, or arrogance. Instead, godly leadership humbly and lovingly serves the flock for God’s glory, not their own.
Key Phrase: “Eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you.” 1 Peter 5:3
