Sketches of Leadership. Mark 8:34-38, Mark 10:28-31, Mark 10:41-45. The paradox promises in the gospel: If you want life, lose it. If you want security, leave it. If you want to be great, become a servant. Jesus did all these things, and he calls us to the life he lived, for the same reasons. We are created to want these things. Ministry is the life-losing, security-leaving, servant-path-following way to receive from God the things we deeply desire, in a paradoxical life of faith.
