1. Matthew 23:1-12
2. titles “divide people into groups of "who is qualified" and "who is not."”
3. “Instead of titles, our goal should be service to one another. The greatest in God's kingdom seek no titles but instead serve the body and broader community.”
4. “elder is simply a recognition of godly behavior and attitudes on the part of older men in the church”
5. “Christ permits no titles. They give no benefit and only bring harm to his church. Instead, Jesus is looking for servants. Let's be that.”
