When Power Kneels

Mar 1, 2026    Phil Stout

Every culture has a story about power.


The victors write history. The strong rise. The important take the seat at the table.

But in this second week of Lent, we’re invited to remember a different kind of story.

At a Passover table, Jesus does something no one expected. In a room full of arguments about who is greatest, he kneels. Then he takes a cup and reframes everything they thought they understood about redemption.


Lent is a season of remembering.


Remembering what real strength looks like.

Remembering who God is.

Remembering what kind of life we’re actually being invited into.
