15 Ways to Follow Jesus' Example of Humility and Servanthood
In a world that often glorifies success, power, and self-promotion, following Jesus' example of humility and servanthood can be a challenging yet rewarding endeavor.

His life and teachings provide us with the blueprint for how we can live a life of humility and servanthood. Here are 15 ways we can follow Jesus' example:
- Embrace a servant's heart: Cultivate a heart that seeks to serve others above oneself, just as Jesus did.
