Creating community

Ben Green | John 13:1-17 

Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel round his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped round him.

Jesus, who knew he had total authority, took on the work of a slave. How can we acquire and live out such counter-cultural attitudes? As Ben explains, we need to do this not just within the church but in every community that we are part of.

The recording begins with the reading from Kate Routley.
