Childishness And Small Religion

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025

Jesus calls us to lay down childish stubbornness and take His hand in trusting, growing childlikeness that welcomes the Kingdom.

But if he holds up two and you see four of them, you have a problem. In Mark 8, this is similar to what happened. Look at verses 22-25, we read, ...read more

True, some of the Ultra-Orthodox may not think kindly of us, but other Jews see us as ...read more
