Our scripture reading is Mark 9:33-37. While the followers of Jesus bicker about which one of them is the greatest, Jesus points to a child to remind them that the greatest in his kingdom is the one who is the servant of all.
This applies to kingdom leadership (how we exert influence), kingdom servantship (how we work together), and kingdom welcomeship (who we welcome into the kingdom of God). When we receive those who come in the name of Jesus—however “great” or “small” they are in the eyes of the kingdoms of this world—it is as if we are welcoming Jesus himself.
Our theme for 2023 is 'Love. Learn. Love.', which is taken from Matthew 22:34-40 and Matthew 28:16-20. Throughout the year we will give our attention to the teachings of Jesus and what it means to follow Him @home, w/the church, &beyond.
