How to Be Great in the Kingdom, Part 1 (Matthew 20:20–25) John MacArthur

Summary

This sermon, based on Matthew 20:20-28, addresses the pervasive pride and self-promotion prevalent in modern society and even within the church. In contrast to the Roman Empire's exaltation of pride, the message emphasizes that true greatness in the Kingdom of God is found not in self-aggrandizement, but in humility and service to others. The practical takeaway is to reject this worldly focus on self and embrace Christ-like humility.
