Under the Chief Shepherd

from King's Church · host John Samson

Why do you do what you do? It's a question we all face, whether we're leading in the church, serving in ministry, or simply trying to live faithfully. In 1 Peter 5:1-4, the Apostle Peter speaks directly to church leaders about the motivations that drive their service, and his words cut to the heart. Are we serving out of compulsion, greed, or pride? Or are we serving willingly, eagerly, and humbly under the Chief Shepherd? We explore what it means to lead (and live) with the right "why," not for applause, gain, or control, but in view of Christ's appearing and the unfading crown He promises to those who serve Him faithfully.
