As Christians, we can’t just do whatever we want, because Jesus is our master, and he’s left us his instructions and example to follow. One of the hardest ways to follow Jesus is also one of the most important: humble yourself.

On today’s episode of Resurgence Leadership, James MacDonald teaches on the necessity of humility from his R13 session. By looking at Jesus’ supreme act of humility in John 13, he explains that true humility is an action rather than a feeling and discusses how to live in humility as we follow Jesus.
