John 11:55-12:11 — He is Worthy

Welcome to this week’s worship service at The Vine! 🌿In today’s message, we continue through the Gospel of John, arriving at a powerful and deeply personal moment in John 12:1–11. At a dinner in Bethany, three very different responses to Jesus are on display—and each one reveals something about the heart.Mary responds with extravagant worship, pouring out costly perfume at Jesus’ feet. Judas responds with criticism, masking a lack of devotion behind seemingly practical concerns. Meanwhile, others are drawn in, curious or believing, while opposition continues to grow.At the center of it all is this truth:Your response to Jesus reveals what He is worth to you.In this message, we reflect on:- What it means to worship Jesus with our best—not our leftovers- How true devotion is often costly, personal, and wholehearted- The danger of hiding a lack of devotion behind “practicality” or criticism- The reality that Jesus always calls for a response—we cannot stay neutralMary’s act filled the room with fragrance. In the same way, a life fully surrendered to Jesus leaves a lasting impact.This service invites us to ask honest questions:Is our devotion to Jesus convenient—or costly?Are we holding anything back?What would it look like to “break the jar” in our own lives?May this message lead you to deeper worship, greater surrender, and a clearer understanding of who Jesus is.#John12 #TrueWorship #CostlyDevotion #FollowJesus #TheVineChurch
