Episode Title: Humility says "He Must Increase, But I Must Decrease”Bible Passage: John 3:22-36 (ESV)
Episode Summary:In today’s episode, we explore the powerful lesson of humility taught by John the Baptist in John 3:22-36. Like a runner passing the baton in a relay race, John understood his role was to prepare the way for Jesus, not to seek fame for himself. His disciples expressed concern as Jesus began to attract more followers, but John responded with grace and humility, famously declaring, "He must increase, but I must decrease." John recognized that his purpose was to glorify Jesus, not himself. In our culture of self-promotion, this mindset challenges us to redirect our own spotlight toward Christ, letting Him take center stage.
Drawing from personal experiences and the wisdom of theologians like John Calvin, we reflect on what it means to find fulfillment by diminishing ourselves so that Jesus may be glorified. How can we, in our daily lives, point the praise and recognition we receive back to God? Listen and be inspired to embody John’s spirit of humility, knowing that in lifting up Jesus, we find our true joy.
