The Mark of Humility

What does it really mean to be a real follower of Jesus?

In this opening message of the Real Ones series, Pastor Earl takes us straight to the first and most essential mark of a true believer—humility. Through Scripture, humor, and real-life honesty, he reveals how pride is at the root of sin, why even strong believers struggle with it, and how Jesus redefined greatness through service.

From the Garden of Eden to the words of Paul and the example of Christ Himself, this sermon calls every believer to lay down self and take up the heart of a servant. Because being “real” in faith doesn’t start with strength—it starts with surrender.

If it’s all about Jesus, it can’t be all about me.
