It takes a lot of humility to step down from your place of power and position to serve in a task that most would consider an insult. It's one of those lessons Jesus taught by example when he left the supper table, girded himself with a towel, and started washing his servants' feet. When they protested, he told them that it was necessary for the world to know that everyone is a servant to their neighbor. Lately, we have seen power on display at the state capital in Tennessee where powerful white men shut down and expelled young, Black legislators who've been muzzled and were desperate to be heard as voices standing up for the victims of a recent mass shooting there. What if Jesus was one of those legislators?
