  Our
• 0:28
  scripture
• 0:28
  reading
• 0:28
  comes
• 0:29
  from
• 0:29
  John,
• 0:30
  chapter
• 0:30
  13
• 0:31
  317
• 0:33
  Jesus,
• 0:34
  knowing
• 0:34
  that
• 0:34
  the
• 0:34
  Father
• 0:35
  had
• 0:35
  given
• 0:35
  all
• 0:35
  things
• 0:36
  into
• 0:36
  his
• 0:36
  hands
• 0:37
  and
• 0:37
  that
• 0:37
  he
• 0:37
  had
• 0:38
  come
• 0:38
  from
• 0:38
  God
• 0:38
  and
• 0:39
  was
• 0:39
  going
• 0:39
  back
• 0:39
  to
• 0:39
  God,
• 0:40
  rose
• 0:40
  from
• 0:40
  supper.
• 0:41
  He
• 0:42
  laid
• 0:42
  aside
• 0:42
  his
• 0:42
  outer
• 0:43
  garments
• 0:44
  and,
• 0:44
  taking
• 0:44
  a
• 0:44
  towel,
• 0:45
  tied
• 0:45
  it
• 0:45
  around
• 0:46
  his
• 0:46
  waist.
• 0:47
  Then
• 0:47
  he
• 0:47
  poured
• 0:47
  water
• 0:48
  into
• 0:48
  a
• 0:48
  basin
• 0:48
  and
• 0:48
  began
• 0:49
  to
• 0:49
  wash
• 0:49
  the
• 0:49
  disciples
• 0:50
  feet
• 0:51
  and
• 0:51
  to
• 0:51
  wipe
• 0:51
  them
• 0:51
  with
• 0:52
  a
• 0:52
  towel
• 0:52
  that
• 0:52
  was
• 0:52
  wrapped
• 0:53
  around
• 0:53
  him.
• 0:54
  He
• 0:54
  came
• 0:54
  to
• 0:54
  Simon
• 0:55
  Peter,
• 0:56
  who
• 0:56
  said
• 0:56
  to
• 0:56
  him,
• 0:56
  Lord,
• 0:57
  do
• 0:57
  you
• 0:57
  wash
• 0:57
  my
• 0:57
  feet?
• 0:58
  Jesus
• 0:59
  answered
• 0:59
  him,
• 0:59
  what
• 1:00
  I
• 1:00
  am
• 1:00
  doing
• 1:01
  you
• 1:01
  do
• 1:01
  not
• 1:01
  understand
• 1:02
  now,
• 1:02
  but
• 1:03
  afterward
• 1:03
  you
• 1:04
  will
• 1:04
  understand.
• 1:05
  Peter
• 1:05
  said
• 1:05
  to
• 1:06
  him,
• 1:06
  you,
• 1:06
  shall
• 1:06
  never
• 1:07
  wash
• 1:07
  my
• 1:07
  feet.
• 1:08
  Jesus
• 1:09
  answered
• 1:09
  him,
• 1:09
  if
• 1:09
  I
• 1:10
  do
• 1:10
  not
• 1:10
  wash
• 1:10
  you,
• 1:11
  you
• 1:11
  have
• 1:11
  no
• 1:12
  share
• 1:12
  with
• 1:12
  me.
• 1:13
  Simon
• 1:14
  Peter
• 1:14
  said
• 1:14
  to
• 1:14
  him,
• 1:14
  Lord,
• 1:15
  not
• 1:15
  my
• 1:15
  feet
• 1:16
  only,
• 1:16
  but
• 1:16
  also
• 1:16
  my
• 1:17
  hands
• 1:17
  and
• 1:17
  my
• 1:17
  head.
• 1:18
  Jesus
• 1:19
  said
• 1:19
  to
• 1:19
  him,
• 1:19
  the
• 1:19
  one
• 1:20
  who
• 1:20
  has
• 1:20
  bathed
• 1:21
  does
• 1:21
  not
• 1:21
  need
• 1:22
  to
• 1:22
  wash
• 1:22
  except
• 1:23
  for
• 1:23
  his
• 1:23
  feet,
• 1:24
  but
• 1:24
  is
• 1:24
  completely
• 1:25
  clean.
• 1:26
  And
• 1:26
  you
• 1:26
  are
• 1:26
  clean,
• 1:27
  but
• 1:27
  not
• 1:28
  every
• 1:28
  one
• 1:28
  of
• 1:28
  you,
• 1:29
  for
• 1:29
  he
• 1:29
  knew
• 1:30
  who
• 1:30
  was
• 1:30
  to
• 1:30
  betray
• 1:31
  him.
• 1:31
  That
• 1:32
  was
• 1:32
  why
• 1:32
  he
• 1:32
  said,
• 1:33
  not
• 1:33
  all
• 1:33
  of
• 1:33
  you
• 1:33
  are
• 1:34
  clean.
• 1:35
  When
• 1:35
  he
• 1:35
  had
• 1:35
  washed
• 1:35
  their
• 1:36
  feet
• 1:36
  and
• 1:36
  put
• 1:36
  on
• 1:37
  his
• 1:37
  outer
• 1:37
  garments
• 1:38
  and
• 1:38
  resumed
• 1:38
  his
• 1:38
  place,
• 1:39
  he
• 1:39
  said
• 1:39
  to
• 1:39
  them,
• 1:40
  do
• 1:40
  you
• 1:40
  understand
• 1:41
  what
• 1:41
  I
• 1:41
  have
• 1:41
  done
• 1:41
  to
• 1:42
  you?
• 1:42
  You
• 1:43
  call
• 1:43
  me
• 1:43
  teacher
• 1:43
  and
• 1:43
  lord,
• 1:44
  and
• 1:44
  you
• 1:44
  are
• 1:44
  right,
• 1:45
  for
• 1:45
  so
• 1:45
  I
• 1:46
  am.
• 1:46
  If
• 1:47
  I
• 1:47
  then
• 1:47
  your
• 1:47
  lord
• 1:48
  and
• 1:48
  teacher
• 1:48
  have
• 1:48
  washed
• 1:49
  your
• 1:49
  feet,
• 1:50
  you
• 1:50
  also
• 1:50
  ought
• 1:50
  to
• 1:51
  wash
• 1:51
  one
• 1:51
  another's
• 1:52
  feet,
• 1:52
  for
• 1:53
  I
• 1:53
  have
• 1:53
  given
• 1:53
  you
• 1:53
  an
• 1:53
  example
• 1:54
  that
• 1:54
  you
• 1:55
  should
• 1:55
  also
• 1:55
  do
• 1:55
  just
• 1:56
  as
• 1:56
  I
• 1:56
  have
• 1:56
  done
• 1:56
  to
• 1:57
  you.
• 1:57
  Truly,
• 1:58
  truly,
• 1:58
  I
• 1:59
  say
• 1:59
  to
• 1:59
  you,
• 1:59
  a
• 1:59
  servant
• 1:59
  is
• 2:00
  not
• 2:00
  greater
• 2:00
  than
• 2:00
  his
• 2:01
  master,
• 2:02
  nor
• 2:02
  is
• 2:02
  a
• 2:02
  messenger
• 2:03
  greater
• 2:03
  than
• 2:03
  the
• 2:04
  one
• 2:04
  who
• 2:04
  sent
• 2:04
  him.
• 2:05
  If
• 2:05
  you
• 2:05
  know
• 2:06
  these
• 2:06
  things,
• 2:06
  blessed
• 2:07
  are
• 2:07
  you
• 2:08
  if
• 2:08
  you
• 2:08
  do
• 2:08
  them.
• 2:09
  We
• 2:10
  know
• 2:10
  pastors
• 2:11
  of
• 2:11
  large
• 2:11
  churches
• 2:12
  with
• 2:12
  enormous
• 2:13
  responsibilities.
• 2:15
  Because
• 2:15
  of
• 2:15
  their
• 2:16
  faithful
• 2:16
  leadership,
• 2:16
  the
• 2:17
  message
• 2:17
  of
• 2:17
  Christ
• 2:18
  is
• 2:18
  broadcast
• 2:19
  and
• 2:20
  ministry
• 2:20
  is
• 2:21
  extended
• 2:21
  to
• 2:21
  many
• 2:22
  people.
• 2:23
  We
• 2:23
  know
• 2:23
  evangelists
• 2:24
  whose
• 2:24
  travel
• 2:25
  schedules
• 2:25
  are
• 2:25
  intense
• 2:26
  and
• 2:26
  fast
• 2:26
  paced.
• 2:27
  Through
• 2:28
  their
• 2:28
  efforts,
• 2:28
  churches
• 2:29
  are
• 2:29
  encouraged
• 2:30
  and
• 2:30
  challenged,
• 2:30
  and
• 2:31
  the
• 2:31
  lost
• 2:31
  are
• 2:32
  exposed
• 2:32
  to
• 2:32
  the
• 2:32
  gospel.
• 2:33
  These
• 2:34
  men
• 2:34
  daily
• 2:35
  impact
• 2:35
  our
• 2:36
  country
• 2:36
  with
• 2:36
  truth.
• 2:38
  The
• 2:38
  tasks
• 2:38
  they
• 2:39
  perform
• 2:39
  are
• 2:39
  important
• 2:40
  to
• 2:40
  the
• 2:40
  kingdom
• 2:40
  of
• 2:41
  God.
• 2:41
  The
• 2:42
  significance
• 2:42
  of
• 2:43
  their
• 2:43
  work
• 2:43
  and
• 2:43
  the
• 2:44
  urgency
• 2:44
  of
• 2:44
  their
• 2:45
  schedules
• 2:45
  dictate
• 2:46
  that
• 2:46
  they
• 2:46
  use
• 2:47
  their
• 2:47
  time
• 2:47
  and
• 2:48
  resources
• 2:49
  wisely.
• 2:50
  The
• 2:51
  disciples
• 2:51
  viewed
• 2:52
  the
• 2:52
  ministry
• 2:52
  of
• 2:53
  Jesus
• 2:53
  in
• 2:53
  the
• 2:53
  same
• 2:54
  way.
• 2:55
  They
• 2:55
  were
• 2:55
  protective
• 2:57
  of
• 2:57
  his
• 2:57
  time
• 2:58
  and
• 2:58
  energy.
• 2:59
  Once
• 3:00
  they
• 3:00
  even
• 3:00
  reprimanded
• 3:01
  parents
• 3:02
  who
• 3:02
  allowed
• 3:02
  their
• 3:02
  children
• 3:03
  to
• 3:03
  distract
• 3:03
  him
• 3:05
  in
• 3:05
  the
• 3:05
  passage.
• 3:05
  Today,
• 3:06
  Peter
• 3:07
  attempted
• 3:07
  to
• 3:08
  stop
• 3:08
  Jesus
• 3:09
  from
• 3:09
  wasting
• 3:09
  time
• 3:10
  and
• 3:10
  surrendering
• 3:11
  his
• 3:12
  dignity
• 3:12
  with
• 3:12
  the
• 3:13
  menial
• 3:13
  task
• 3:13
  of
• 3:14
  washing.
• 3:15
  Jesus
• 3:16
  realized
• 3:16
  the
• 3:17
  urgency
• 3:17
  of
• 3:18
  his
• 3:18
  calling
• 3:19
  and
• 3:19
  time,
• 3:19
  but
• 3:20
  he
• 3:20
  also
• 3:21
  knew
• 3:21
  how
• 3:21
  to
• 3:22
  be
• 3:22
  happy.
• 3:23
  Taking
• 3:23
  the
• 3:24
  time
• 3:24
  to
• 3:24
  individually
• 3:25
  serve
• 3:26
  and
• 3:26
  show
• 3:26
  concern
• 3:27
  for
• 3:27
  the
• 3:27
  people
• 3:27
  who
• 3:27
  were
• 3:28
  dearest
• 3:28
  to
• 3:28
  him
• 3:29
  brought
• 3:29
  him
• 3:30
  deep
• 3:30
  satisfaction.
• 3:32
  Washing
• 3:33
  the
• 3:33
  disciples
• 3:33
  feet
• 3:34
  met
• 3:35
  their
• 3:35
  need
• 3:35
  for
• 3:35
  that
• 3:36
  moment.
• 3:37
  Jesus
• 3:37
  proved
• 3:38
  that
• 3:38
  their
• 3:38
  well
• 3:39
  being
• 3:40
  mattered
• 3:40
  to
• 3:40
  him,
• 3:41
  and
• 3:41
  as
• 3:41
  a
• 3:41
  result,
• 3:42
  he
• 3:42
  found
• 3:43
  joy
• 3:43
  in
• 3:43
  serving
• 3:44
  them.
• 3:45
  This
• 3:45
  joy
• 3:46
  was
• 3:46
  not
• 3:46
  his
• 3:47
  duty
• 3:47
  it
• 3:48
  was
• 3:48
  his
• 3:48
  delight.
• 3:49
  Jesus
• 3:50
  was
• 3:50
  concerned
• 3:51
  that
• 3:51
  the
• 3:51
  people
• 3:51
  who
• 3:51
  gave
• 3:52
  their
• 3:52
  lives
• 3:52
  to
• 3:53
  serve
• 3:53
  him
• 3:53
  might
• 3:54
  miss
• 3:54
  this
• 3:54
  path
• 3:55
  to
• 3:55
  happiness.
• 3:57
  He
• 3:57
  realized
• 3:57
  they
• 3:57
  could
• 3:58
  become
• 3:58
  so
• 3:59
  overwhelmed
• 4:00
  by
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  urgency
• 4:01
  of
• 4:01
  serving
• 4:01
  the
• 4:02
  world
• 4:02
  that
• 4:03
  they
• 4:03
  would
• 4:03
  not
• 4:03
  take
• 4:04
  time
• 4:04
  to
• 4:04
  individually
• 4:05
  serve
• 4:06
  the
• 4:06
  ones
• 4:07
  they
• 4:07
  love
• 4:07
  most.
• 4:08
  So
• 4:09
  he
• 4:09
  asked
• 4:09
  if
• 4:10
  they
• 4:10
  understood
• 4:11
  what
• 4:11
  he
• 4:11
  had
• 4:11
  done
• 4:11
  for
• 4:12
  them.
• 4:13
  This
• 4:14
  concern
• 4:14
  can
• 4:14
  especially
• 4:15
  apply
• 4:15
  to
• 4:15
  spouses
• 4:16
  who
• 4:16
  have
• 4:16
  demanding
• 4:17
  responsibilities
• 4:18
  outside
• 4:18
  of
• 4:18
  their
• 4:19
  home.
• 4:20
  The
• 4:20
  Lord
• 4:20
  deeply
• 4:21
  desires
• 4:21
  that
• 4:22
  we
• 4:22
  understand
• 4:22
  the
• 4:23
  significance
• 4:24
  of
• 4:24
  carving
• 4:25
  out
• 4:25
