🎯 IN THIS EPISODE:
What does servant leadership really look like in Jesus' upside-down kingdom?
In this episode Tyler, Barry and Maron (sans headphones!) dive into Matthew 20 and Jesus' radical approach to power and greatness. We explore what it means to be a servant leader, what greatness really means in the upside-down kingdom, and how to spot genuine servant leadership in the church and world. Plus, hear about family road trips, surprise hippie parties, Tyler's D&D adventures as a dungeon master, Super Bowl snacks, and Lord of the Rings parenting moments.
