Weekday Reset: "Upside Down"

You are listening to our weekday Summer Podcast series where we are using this summer as a RESET — an opportunity for us to return to what matters most! This week, we are exploring being "active in service." Today's reading centers around Mark 10:45. Over and over, Jesus flips our human values on their head. "You have heard it said, but I say to you..." He takes our cultural assumptions about winning, fame, and self-promotion, and replaces them with a radical call to authentic humility and selfless love. This is the way of Jesus - the upside-down life - a path He modeled from birth to death. God's own Son didn't come to be served by the universe he created, but to serve and give his life as a ransom for humanity. From the manger to the cross, it was all about radical self-giving love for others. For more information, check out portcity.church/summer!
