"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." This is the most-quoted verse in John 15. But in context, Jesus is not making a general statement about heroism. He is describing what he is about to do.

The greatest love is not dramatic. It is daily. In ministry, it looks like showing up when you would rather stay home, letting someone else lead, staying on a team through a hard season because the people need you. It is choosing the team over your ego. Quietly. Without applause.

Formation to Transformation is a worship devotional for people who want worship to be more than a song set. New episodes every weekday through John 15.
