What is Glory? (John 12:20-43)

This week's message was brought to us by Nick who explores the biblical definition of glory through the lens of John 12. He contrasts the worldly pursuits for power, status, and recognition with the true glory demonstrated by Jesus Christ, which is defined by descending and dying to oneself. Using the metaphor of a grain of wheat, Nick explains how spiritual fruitfulness only occurs when one surrenders self-preservation to serve others and God, just as Jesus exemplifies for us. He shares personal stories of moving across the country and prioritizing ministry to illustrate how sacrificial living led to a fulfilling life for himself. Ultimately, the message encourages us to embrace humility and service, reminding us that God honors those who follow Christ's sacrificial love.
