John 13:2-17 | Charlie Kirk / Jesus Washes His Disciples' Feet - Jonny Ardavanis

In John 13:2–17, we witness one of the most startling and beautiful moments in Scripture—Jesus, the King of Kings, stooping to wash the feet of His disciples. On the eve of His crucifixion, with betrayal at hand and His glory before Him, He sets the ultimate example of humility, service, and love.

This message walks through:

1. The Setting

2. The Scene

3. The Symbol

4. The Application

We see the backdrop of pride, betrayal, and selfish ambition contrasted with the majesty of Christ’s love. We behold the act itself—the Master of the universe doing what only a servant would do. We uncover the deeper meaning, that this washing points to the greater cleansing at the cross. And finally, we hear the call to follow His example, laying down our pride to joyfully serve others.

In this powerful text, we are reminded that Jesus not only washes us clean from sin, but also calls us to live as people marked by humility, love, and selfless service.
