Message Notes: Q: When have you seen serving others be truly sweet? Why? Q: When have you felt like serving was pesky, inconvenient, and costly? Why? Read the story scene in John 13:1-17. What most grabs your attention, puzzles you, amuses you, or otherwise impresses you in this account? We see four joy-giving motivators that can encourage more whole-hearted serving. • Jesus’ Father-like, full-to-the-brim love. • Jesus’ own intentional garb, posture, and practice. • Jesus’ merciful, deeper, cleansing work for us. • Jesus’ humble example. Q: Which of these motivators most moves you, and why? Q: What are one or two fresh ways you can and will aim to serve like Jesus in the coming season? Get Ready for Next Week: Read each day from John 14.
