Have you ever considered what the disciples must have felt on Good Friday? They had given up everything to follow Jesus. They had left their jobs and their families.

Have you ever been sharing an experience only to be ambushed by a "one upper?" You know what I am talking about. The person who loves to talk about how they have done this, that, or the other so much bigger, better, faster, etc. Paul addresses what is at the heart the one upper.
