Throughout History, there have been times where the disconnect between the TEACHINGS and EXAMPLE of Jesus Christ and the ACTIONS AND ATTITUDES of those who claim to be his followers has been exposed.
If we truly know Jesus and follow Him, we will be made like Him and our IDENTITY as a Christian will be evidenced by our TESTIMONY.
If you want to know who God is, look at Jesus.
If you want to know what it means to be human, look at Jesus.
If you want to know what love is, look at Jesus.
If you want to know what grief is, look at Jesus.
And go on looking until you’re not just a spectator, but your actually part of the drama which has him as the central character.
N.T. Wright

Mark 9:23-24

Mark 9:30-37

Followers follow a LEADER

“It is well known that Christ consistently used the expression “follower.” He never asks for admirers, worshippers, or adherents. No, he calls disciples. It is not adherents of a teaching but followers of a life Christ is looking for.” — Soren Kierkegaard

You know you are a follower if you end up WHERE the leader ends up.
We have become the CENTER of our UNIVERSE.

“Servant“ has become a DIRTY WORD
Serving has to be LEARNED and STRATEGIC
Each of us are uniquely created to do GREAT WORKS.

Ephesians 2:8-10

Serving is where we discover our CALLING

We are never more CHRIST-LIKE than when we are SERVING. But, we are never more ANTI-CHRIST than when we are expecting to be SERVED.

Ephesians 5:25-28

Serving is the at the VERY CORE of the definition of a Christian.
