Prioritize Pushing Away From The Table

January 28, 2024 • Pastor Chad Thompson • John 13:1–17

Bottom line: Let's prioritize pushing away from the table and serving like Jesus by serving the needs of others.


Jesus pushed away from the table in the upper room and served a practical need of his men (i.e. washed their feet). In doing so, he demonstrated his humility through the action of serving. After Jesus washed their feet, he plainly tells them to replicate his actions, i.e. serve others by meeting needs. Jesus invites us today to push away from the table and serve for at least two reasons: 1) when we serve, the life of Jesus is expressed in this world; and 2) when we serve, we live a better life. Our sacrifice to serve leads to satisfaction in life.
