Ambitious Leaders, Barbimaeus (Part 1)
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this piece, Steve Gregg discusses Jesus' teachings in Mark chapter 10, specifically focusing on the concept of suffering and how it relates to ambition in leadership. He notes that Jesus frequently spoke of the difficulty in entering the kingdom of God and the inevitability of persecution for believers. Gregg also highlights the importance of spiritual authority over political leadership in the church and the dangers of adopting a mentality based on Gentile systems of authority. Ultimately, he emphasizes the need for humility and a willingness to suffer in order to truly follow Jesus' example of leadership.
