True Spiritual Greatness: Matthew 23:1-12 (Sermon)
Introduction What is the path to greatness? It would be nice if we all were great. Right? Great at sports, great in school, great at work, great relationships. It would be great. I just learned not that long ago—maybe I shouldn’t admit this—when someone calls another person the GOAT, they mean he or she is the Greatest Of All Time GOAT. So, for example: Tom Brady could be called the GOAT of quarterbacks. With 7,753 Completions. 12,050 Attempts. 89,214 Passing Yards. And 649 Passing Touchdowns. https://media.npr.org/assets/img/2023/02/01/gettyimages-1447053266-889e61446582ff6a98149ea6c68dfd3bc879fa06-s1100-c50.jpg Some might say that Catlin Clark is the GOAT of Iowa Hawkeye Women’s basketball: With 3,951 points in her four seasons. 1,144 assists. And a 46.2 field goal percentage. https://a.espncdn.com/media/motion/2024/0407/dm_240407_DM_WCBB_Caitlin_Clark_presser/dm_240407_DM_WCBB_Caitlin_Clark_presser.jpg Maybe we can’t compete with Tom or Catlin to be the greatest of all
