In Mark 10:32-45, Jesus journeys toward Jerusalem, knowing He will suffer to bring salvation. Along the way, His disciples reveal their desire for honour, exposing human ambition. Jesus contrasts their self-focus with the true greatness of God’s kingdom—servanthood. At the heart of this teaching is verse 45: Jesus’ purpose “to give His life as a ransom for many”. This act of sacrifice not only frees us from sin but calls us into a life of worship and humble service. Jesus’ journey to the cross challenges us to set aside worldly pursuits for a life that reflects His love and selflessness. Join us as we examine how Jesus’ willingness to serve transforms our understanding of greatness, inspiring us to live as ransomed people committed to serving others in His name. This message is a call to follow Christ’s example in a world often focused on power and recognition.
