Hand Me Another Foot (34 of 70)
And The Word Became Flesh
John 13:1-17
Pastor Jeff Schreve
If you have your Bible, please turn to John chapter 13. When I was in college, I was part of Allendale Baptist Church, which was a large growing church in Austin. One of the guys I really looked up to, one of my discipleship leaders, was the college department mc. So, he would always kind of lead the group and do announcements. He didn't teach, but he was kind of the point person, and so, when he graduated and moved on, the guy that was running the college department said, "Jeff, I want you to do that." And I was like, "I don't want to do that." I didn't like getting up in front of people. And he said, 'No, I want you to do it." And so, I did it a couple of times. It didn't go very well.

Jacob Bain asked me, "Yeah, I'm kind of curious about this title, Hand Me Another Foot." So, I felt like I needed to explain it; otherwise, you'd think I'm a weirdo. But that's where I got it, Hand Me Another Brick! We're going to talk about foot-washing, Hand Me Another Foot.
Now, we talked about this last week in our study of the gospel of John, but we talked about what Jesus knew. And because He knew He had come forth from God, He was loved by God, He was in the Father's plan, and He was goin ...
