• Servant Leadership
• Luke 2224-30

3
Luke 2224

• 24 A dispute also arose among them, as to which
  of them was to be regarded as the greatest.

4
Luke 2221-24

• 21 But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is
  with me on the table. 22 For the Son of Man goes
  as it has been determined, but woe to that man by
  whom he is betrayed! 23 And they began to
  question one another, which of them it could be
  who was going to do this. 24 A dispute also arose
  among them, as to which of them was to be
  regarded as the greatest.

5
Luke 2225

• And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles
  exercise lordship over them, and those in
  authority over them are called benefactors.

6
Luke 2226-27

• 26 But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest
  among you become as the youngest, and the leader
  as one who serves. 27 For who is the greater, one
  who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it
  not the one who reclines at table? But I am among
  you as the one who serves.

7
Philippians 23-4

• 3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit,
  but in humility count others more significant
  than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only
  to his own interests, but also to the interests
  of others.

8
Philippians 25-8

• 5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours
  in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form
  of God, did not count equality with God a thing
  to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking
  the form of a servant, being born in the likeness
  of men. 8 And being found in human form, he
  humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point
  of death, even death on a cross.

Contrasting Views

• Worldly Leadership
• All about Position Privilege.
• Question Am I getting respect I deserve?
• Servant Leadership
• All about Responsibility Service.
• Question Do others have what they need to grow?

2 Corinthians 514-15

• 14 For the love of Christ controls us, because we
  have concluded this that one has died for all,
  therefore all have died 15 and he died for all,
  that those who live might no longer live for
  themselves but for him who for their sake died
  and was raised.

20
2 Corinthians 516-17

• 16 From now on, therefore, we regard no one
  according to the flesh. Even though we once
  regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard
  him thus no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in
  Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed
  away behold, the new has come.
