Questions to Ponder:
If you had been in the place of the apostles, how would you have felt to have Jesus at your feet?
(See Peter’s response in John 13:8)
We think of politicians as the most visible, powerful people in our society. Are you surprised when Jesus singles them out as examples of what not to be?
Who do you know who exemplifies the servant attitude that Jesus calls us to have? What traits in this person’s life qualifies them as a great servant?
Have you ever had someone outside your family wash your feet? How would you feel if your small group or Bible study had a foot-washing ceremony?
