Hermano Omar,
I had the privilege of listen to one of your devotional here in El Salvador. It was about the word “servant” and you taught us about the root of the word and did an illustration of slave rowing on a ship. It has been on my mind since always. I would like to get deep on this matter and share with my church group. could you help me on this matter.
Enjoying your emails always.
Dios te Bendiga!

Hola Carlos,
Here is a summary of the devotional on “service” that I taught in El Salvador.
In his letter to the Corinthians, the Apostle Paul wrote that he wanted for others to regard him as “a servant of Christ” (1 Cor. 4:1). However, Paul selected a very particular Greek word to describe the kind of servant that he was referring to. Out of five Greek words for servant, Paul used the word “huperetes” – a word that is literally translated “under-rower.” An under-rower was an individual who served as a rower at the bottom of a trireme, a three-decked ship. Under-rowers were chained to the lower deck and rowed cooperatively with others to the cadence of a drum. Their lives served a purpose bigger than themselves and they received no recognition for their labor. And as slaves, their lives were expendable. Under-rowers generally died at their post.
Blessings,
Omar~
