Journey of the Heart: Following Jesus to the Cross
“The Heart of a Servant”
John 13:1-17

I. The servant’s heart is motivated by love. 1-3

II. The servant’s heart is willing to take the lowest place. 4-5

III. The servant’s heart sees the dirt but washes anyway. 6-11

IV. The servant’s heart sets the pattern for His disciples to follow. 12-17

We must reframe work as service.
We are challenged to lead through humility and not power.
We are encouraged to move toward mess and not away from it.
We are reminded that everyday acts matter to God.
We are called to reflect Jesus in our work culture.

Take Action!
Philippians 2, Colossians 3:23, Matthew 5:9
1. How is the Spirit prompting you to respond to God’s word today?
2. What stops you from serving others?
3. Spend time praying that the Lord will cultivate the heart of a servant in you.
4. Who needs to experience the love of Christ through your service this week?
5. Who do you need to share this message with this week?
