Entitlement Attitude Versus Jesus Attitude

This week I’m talking about last days leadership. We live in a time when most people believe they are entitled to a certain lifestyle in America. This is known as the entitlement culture. The culture became evident with the baby boomers and has substantially increased in subsequent generations.

It is revealed today by such things as teenage students refusing to do certain jobs even while they demand newer cars. It shows up in the workplace with younger people who don’t like to get up in the morning and demand flexible work schedules. It shows up in the church with people who demand the best entertainment preaching and newest technology or they may not return. This entitlement attitude is opposed to the Jesus attitude where He "made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death even death on a cross"! (Phil. 2:6).
