A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. I used to have three statues in my office. They were wonderful reminders that framed how I approach life and ministry. The first was of Simeon holding the baby Jesus. Simeon, with the Savior of the world swaddled in his arms rejoices that his “eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel,” (Luke 2.30-32).  The second is Jesus washing His disciples’ feet. At the height of His ministry, after three years of walking with His apostles and countless disciples, as He prepared the Table in the upper room, Jesus bent down and washed their feet. The third statue was of Jesus carrying the cross. The chiseled stone revealing thin lines of sharp whips, His arms gripping tightly to the burden on His shoulders. The artist carefully displayed a cobble street beneath His heavy feet but did not intone the work with the wailing of the women who walked behind the Lord
