“Generally and understandably we think that if our ministries increase, Jesus’ ministry will increase as well. John the Baptist knows better. He apparently believes that it is possible to be so consumed with Christ’s increase that one can actually be content to be less significant oneself. This is the mystery of authentic ministry. Who of us can say we have attained this poised self-diminution? It is a goal greatly to be desired.”
― Frederick Dale Bruner, The Gospel of John
