    So what is Jesus telling us about his kingdom? If you want to be great, become small. God isn’t looking for us to be independent, but dependent. The strongest in the kingdom of heaven is the one who realises that they have no strength themselves, but t

    Intro: My dad’s bigger than your dad! My dad’s stronger than your dad! My dad’s smarter than your dad! My dad’s faster than your dad! Does this sound familiar?

    In the gospel of Matthew we see a few recurring themes: True spirituality; living by faith; and achieving greatness. All of these themes overlap to some extent. Matthew 18 begins with the disciples re-opening these issues again by asking Jesus a question.

    An Itch In The Middle Of Your Back

     | 4,961 views

    Young people are often an "inconvenience" to those of us in the church. We want to do ministry to and with children and youth, but we do not want to neglect what we think is really important- the adults.

    A great way to Christ is to see the world through the eyes of young people. Too often, young people are like an itch in the middle of your back that you just can't reach. It's there and we need to do something about it, but we don't know what. We need to look at young people, children and teens, ...read more

    Jesus did not mean that we need to act like children, but to show a few good childlike traits that can help us draw nearer to God.

    Matt. 18:1-5 In the gospels, the apostles were always wondering among themselves who would be the greatest in the kingdom of God. They would argue amongst themselves because they wanted the places of honor In Mark 9 and 10 we see two examples we’ll take note of. Mark 9:33-34 (NKJV) 33 Then ...read more
