Experience the “greater things” Jesus has in store for us – a life beyond good, aiming for greatness. Following Jesus’ mission leads to a flourishing life, not just settling for the ordinary. Let’s move beyond mere growth to creating a multiplying movement, building God’s Kingdom together. Jesus calls us to embrace the extraordinary and resist the temptation of building our own empires, focusing solely on advancing His Kingdom.
