Message: “Humble Leadership” from Kevin Dibbley

In this sermon, entitled "Humble Leadership", we are going to be studying Luke 22:24-30. Often, when things go wrong in our families, our businesses, and our churches, our temptation is to try to quickly right the ship. Many, if not all of us, are fixers. Often, the need to fix things comes out of fear or out of pride. Spouses can quickly look at each other and say, “I told you!” Pride easily enters our relationships when problems arise. For Jesus’ disciples, it appears the wheels are coming off the mission. They have just learned that Judas would betray Jesus. Jesus is speaking about becoming the Passover Lamb who will die. Now, the disciples kick into action arguing about who should be leading this thing. Jesus lovingly and graciously corrects their fleshly responses by teaching and modeling to them how leadership in the kingdom works. Jesus leads by example. We don’t need fearful or prideful autocrats. We need humble leaders. When our lives get messy, humble leadership is kingdom leadership.
