As we continue our Walking with Jesus series this week, we overhear Jesus sharing serious words about where his life and ministry are headed, while his disciples are pre-occupied with arguing over “who is the greatest.” A little child in their midst catches Jesus’ eye, leading the adults to have an upside-down conversation about what it looks like to welcome God. What does this story reveal about Jesus and how does it invite us to walk with him?
Scripture: Mark 9:30-37 (additional lectionary texts include: Prov 31:10-31, Psalm 1, James 3: 13-4:3, 7-8a)
