Text: Mark 9:30-41   The Standard of True Humility Modeled and Misunderstood (9:30-32) Jesus predicts His death and resurrection a second time. The disciples misunderstand and reject Jesus' statement. Jesus displays the ultimate model of humility as He carries out His mission (see also Philippians 2:5-11).   The Scale of True Greatness Measured and Illustrated (9:33-37) The disciples measure greatness by being first and ruler of all Jesus measures greatness by being last and servant of all Jesus illustrates greatness through child-like weakness and dependence   The Scope of True Ministry Miscalculated and Undervalued (9:38-41) The disciples thought that the scope of Gospel ministry was limited to their location and experience.  Jesus taught that the scope of Gospel ministry extends to all who do mighty works in His name. Jesus clarified that these "mighty works" include the smallest acts of service.
