Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we explore one of the most challenging questions Jesus ever asked: “Can you drink the cup I am going to drink?” (Matthew 20:21–22).When a mother asked Jesus to grant her sons seats of honor, He didn’t rebuke her harshly—He revealed the true cost of Kingdom greatness. This teaching examines how often we pray for influence, recognition, or promotion without understanding that in God’s Kingdom, glory comes through suffering, obedience, and sacrificial service.We dive into: • The gap between ambition and understanding Kingdom cost • Why true greatness is measured by faithfulness, not status • The path of servanthood, sacrifice, and endurance • How James and John’s journey shows that God prepares us through trialsReflection and practical challenges guide you to examine your prayers, embrace humility, and take steps toward living a Kingdom-first life.If you’re ready to stop seeking titles and start embracing obedience, this episode will challenge, encourage, and equip you to follow Jesus faithfully—even when the path is difficult.Listen, share, and reflect on what it truly means to drink the cup.
