Children: A Blessing and an Object Lesson
Preacher: Eric Douma Series: Matthew Scripture: Matthew 19:13–15
In this message, taken from Matthew 19:13-15, we examine how Jesus' interaction with children functions as an object lesson for His disciples and for all of us. In this encounter, Jesus uses children as an object lesson of what we as believers should be.
The point Jesus is making is that we should be humble like children as opposed to arrogant like the Pharisees. Come and hear for yourself why humility and reliance upon God's grace should characterize the attitude and life of the believer.
