This book is about rivalry and the devastating consequences it can lead to. Rivalry stems from the need to be accepted. This need to be accepted is rooted in our insecurities especially among siblings vying for the attention and favor of their parents. Many of the examples used in this book are incidents of sibling rivalry between brothers and sisters. Even the example of the disciples of Jesus, though not related by blood, were spiritual brothers. Rivalry is a deadly trap that can destroy you. Rivalry leads to envy and jealousy. Envy and jealousy leads to bickering, fighting, hatred, and sometimes murder. Jesus said the least will be the greatest in the kingdom of God. To avoid the rivalry trap, we must become humble and have a servant attitude. Christians especially must serve in the church with a humble heart and a servant attitude. Comparing and competing with others in the church must be avoided. Whether we are gifted a little or a lot, we must always use our gifts to further the spread of the gospel not to bring attention to ourselves.
