So much has been written about leadership. Climbing the ladder of greatness and success is an admirable goal, but it can also be a slippery slope. So what’s the true cost of greatness when it comes to serving God? Jesus answered that question after He was approached by James and John’s mother, asking for her sons to be seated next to Jesus in His kingdom. Jesus gave James and John—and each of us—an honest look at what it means to be great in God’s kingdom. Being great like Jesus is all about leading through serving.
