TODAY’S MESSAGE What Do I Get? Mark 10:17-22 The Rich Young Ruler asked Jesus, What do I get for serving in Your Kingdom? • What was his attitude? • What was his motive? • What was he committed to? Peter asked Jesus, What do I get to equip me to serve in Your Kingdom? • What was his attitude? • What was his motive? • What was he committed to? What motivates you? In your core being, what is the change agent that brings you to act on something? What (motivating) role have you allowed Christ to play in your life? When your life is all said and done, what sentence will be written about you? At MAC, I know what is expected of me. We stand for something and that is why our Membership Covenant is important.
