In this powerful message from Northcliffe Church, Pastor Jerry walks through Gospel of Mark chapter 10 to reveal a truth many people—just like the disciples—often miss: Jesus didn’t come first as King, but as Savior.

Reflecting the humility that we value in disciples of Jesus, teachability is a reflection of the reality that we don’t know everything. God is always teaching us something that we might better reflect His character in our lives and relationships. We can learn from God’s Word, the circumstances He is

We believe that no individual has all the answers or all the best ideas. So we want to do everything in humility, recognizing that God can and will use others for the growth of His church. We wish to pursue the good of others more than we pursue our own
