What does it mean to be a servant as a Christian? Jesus gave a very different definition of what it meant in His time on being a leader. What does it mean to us to be a leader? Jesus told us that being a leader was someone who demonstrated an attitude of service to those they lead. Leadership today just like then is not represented the way Christ said it should be. Christian service is more than just helping one another.
