Unlocking My Full Potential

Matt Brown

What if the reason you feel stuck isn’t a lack of ability, but a lack of formation? In this message from Matthew 20:20–28, Pastor Matt Brown shows how God unlocks our full potential through community, suffering, surrender, and servanthood. James and John’s mother asks Jesus for greatness for her sons, but Jesus reframes greatness as a cross-shaped road, not a throne. You’ll be challenged to invite others to speak gifting over you, embrace the hard road of growth, and trust God’s plan even when life feels unfair. And in a culture obsessed with status, Jesus calls His followers to the opposite: the way up is down.
