Mark 10:32-45 // Going Down to Go Up (Preached on February 8, 2026)
from Jeff Shelnutt Sermons · host Jeff Shelnutt
As Jesus continues to go up the Jerusalem, His disciples are amazed and His followers are afraid. The way up is down in the kingdom of God, as Jesus, for the third time, makes clear when He prophesies His own death and resurrection. John and James ask for positions of prominence in the coming glory of the kingdom. Though their desire to be closer to Jesus is commendable, Jesus makes it clear they do not understand the kingdom's dynamics. Yet, they will. Finally, Jesus teaches the Twelve about true leadership and the disciple's call to be a slave to all.
