What makes a true disciple? This week, we take a deeper look at a story which cuts to the heart of what it means to be a follower of Jesus – serving others in love.

Read

• The story of Jesus washing the disciples’ feet in John 13:1-17.

Reflect or Discuss

• In this chapter, Jesus knows He is spending the last few precious hours with His disciples before His death. What does this add to the significance of Him washing the disciples’ feet?
• Why were the disciples surprised, and even appalled, by this act of service?
• What can we learn from Jesus’ example in this passage? How can you put this into practice?
• Take a look back at Parmida’s story. In what ways is SAT-7 acting as the “hands and feet” of Jesus?

Pray

• Pray that God will give you opportunities to show His love to others in the coming week, and that you will always be ready to serve. Thank God that SAT-7 is serving Him by discipling MENA believers.
