About this listen

What does true greatness look like? In a message about "The Humble King," Pastor Evan unpacks the revolutionary nature of Christ's arrival through the lens of Luke 1:26-38. Drawing from the angel Gabriel's visit to Mary in Nazareth, he reveals how God deliberately chose obscurity over spectacle, weakness over worldly power, and humility over grandeur. Pastor Evan shows how the incarnation demonstrates God's heart for entering ordinary spaces and using overlooked people. He particularly highlights Mary's humble response, "Behold, I am the servant of the Lord," as the model for how we should receive God's work in our lives. The message culminates in a practical challenge to embody Christ-like humility in our relationships, obedience, service, and suffering - reminding us that God's pattern of exalting the humble remains true today. As we prepare our hearts for Christmas, we're invited to embrace the countercultural path of the humble King who shows us that true greatness lies not in worldly recognition but in surrender to God's purposes.
