  <itunes:subtitle>In Episode 257 of the 2 Minute Disciple, we explore Luke 17:7-10 and Jesus's teaching on humble obedience. This episode reveals that obedience is expected—not optional, not something to be celebrated, but the baseline of discipleship. Through the parable of the servant who works all day and then serves the master's meal without expectation of thanks, we discover what it means to be an "unworthy servant who has simply done our duty." This episode challenges the spiritual pride that expects recognition for obedience and invites us into a posture of gratitude-driven service. Through guided meditation and a practical daily habit of humble obedience, learn how to release expectations and find joy in duty itself. Join us as we explore what it means to serve without seeking recognition.</itunes:subtitle>
