Is God Egotistical?
In Jesus' prayer before his crucifiction, he makes a bold request - that God would glorify him. How can Jesus pray for his own glory? Isn't that egotistical? In this message, guest teacher Dave Cover from The Crossing Church in Colombia, MO, explains why just the opposite is true. As a part of the Trinity, Jesus must seek his own glory. And in doing so, Jesus invites his followers to enjoy the only thing that can satisfy.
