The Search for Status Blog Series: Introduction

Most of us would never admit we’re obsessed with status… but give us a few milliseconds in a room, and we’ve already figured out where we rank. Who’s impressive? Who’s intimidating? Who’s beneath us? Who might threaten us?

It happens faster than a blink and sticks around longer than we’d like.

In this three-part series, we’re going to look at our love affair with climbing the ladder, the shocking reality that Jesus stepped off it on purpose, and what it means for us to stop fighting over the best seat in the house.

Fair warning: there may be a story about falling off a horse. And it’s more theological than you think.
