John 13:12-17 | We Follow Jesus by Following His Example | Steve Henry | June 29th, 2025

Harvest Church Arroyo Grande - Sunday June 8th, 2025

 

“We Follow Jesus by Following His Example” — based on John 13:12–17 — invites us to reassess true greatness in God’s kingdom. In this sermon, Pastor Steve Henry shares how Jesus didn’t just teach humility and service — He demonstrated it by washing His disciples’ feet.

 

Pastor Steve breaks down three core truths from Jesus’ example:

 

1. Jesus Modeled with words and actions (v. 12–14)

 

2. Jesus Modeled humility and servanthood (v. 15–16)

 

3. Jesus Modeled the pathway to a blessed life (v. 17)

 

This message reminds us that:

 

- Serving others is central — not a burden, but a kingdom priority.

 

- True joy and blessing come through service, not being served.

 

- Our faith must be active, living out the gospel in real ways.

 

You'll also be challenged with 10 practical ways to serve — from listening compassionately and offering help to forgiveness and hospitality. Whether you’re just starting your walk or have been on the journey for years, this teaching will ignite your heart toward action, humility, and deepened joy.
