Episode 16: Who is the greatest?

In this episode of Etiquette for Dangerous Women, Jaime reflects on Matthew 18, where the disciples ask Jesus, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” Initially judgmental of the question, she realizes that Jesus didn’t rebuke them—He answered it, pointing to childlike humility as the key to greatness.This leads Jamie into a personal exploration of how God has been reshaping her belief system—moving from big, dramatic shifts to more subtle, refining work. She discusses her past fixation on achievement and how God taught her to value people over goals. Now, she feels invited to pursue excellence again, but with the right heart—free from fear, pride, or the lie that mediocrity is more spiritual.Using metaphors like a crumpled dollar and a blocked valve, she illustrates how small, lingering beliefs can hinder God's blessings from flowing through us. The episode ends in prayer, asking God to reveal and correct these false beliefs so we can receive fully, walk in truth, and be a blessing to the world. This is a public episode.
