Selfish ambition will ruin a ministry. And if our work as Christians is motivated by personal prestige, we’ll lose our reward and make it difficult for others. Pastor Terry helps us remember through today’s teaching how important it is for us to examine the motivations of our hearts. Unless we become others centered, especially in the church, we’ll walk all over people to get what we want. There are so many benefits to living a selfless life, but unless we’re willing to die to self, we’ll never know them. God blesses His children who learn to live life by giving their lives away.
