Unpacking Jesus's radical call to reject "power over" in favor of "power with," Mike Erre and Tim Stafford continue the Rule Series by exploring how this paradigm shift can transform our understanding of leadership, authority, and the church's role in the world. Dive into a thought-provoking discussion on how embracing Jesus's model challenges modern Christian nationalism and the temptation to use worldly power to achieve spiritual goals.
Key Takeaways:
• Distinguishing Between Power Over and Power With – Understanding how coercive power contrasts with relational, cooperative power in the teachings of Jesus.
• "Not So With You": Jesus's Command to Reject Worldly Power – Exploring Mark 10:42-45 and how Jesus instructs his disciples to lead through service and humility.
• The Temptation of Power and Authority – Analyzing biblical examples such as the temptation of Jesus, Peter's use of the sword, and the disciples' desire for greatness.
• Implications for Modern Church Leadership and Christian Nationalism – Discussing how embracing "power with" can address issues of hierarchy, abuse of authority, and the church's engagement with politics.
• Practical Applications for Embracing the Way of Jesus – Offering insights on how individuals and communities can embody servant leadership and resist the allure of power over.
