Upside Down Kingdom – Week 2 | True Greatness

from Thrive Community Church · host John Roth

When a group argues about who will sit at the top, you get a clear snapshot of how we chase greatness—climbing ladders, guarding resumes, and still feeling insecure. This sermon names that ache: people who finally reach the top only to realize the ladder was leaning against the wrong wall. It’s about the tension between worldly success as competition and a deeper hunger for something secure and meaningful. The message flips the script: true greatness looks like a child—vulnerable, dependent, welcomed—and a king who becomes last to serve everyone. You’ll hear what humility actually asks of us, why letting go of “my resume” matters, and how a community might build and live differently when service replaces status. Expect both comfort and a nudge that lingers in the way you see others and your place among them.
