The sermon for Pentecost 22B discusses Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem, highlighting his foretelling of suffering and death while preparing his disciples for the realities of his mission. The interaction between Jesus and the disciples reveals their misunderstanding of his purpose as they seek positions of power in his impending glory. Emphasising that true greatness in the kingdom lies in serving others rather than seeking authority, it reflects on their motives, encouraging them to act out of love and service rather than duty.
