In this message from our One Generation series, Pastor Josh Slautterback takes us to Mark 10, where parents bring their children to Jesus and the disciples rebuke them. Jesus is indignant: “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.”
In a culture obsessed with self-improvement, it’s easy to become so focused on our own growth that we miss the mission Jesus gave us—to go and make disciples. Jesus welcomed the ones who had nothing to offer, and He reminds us that the kingdom is received, not earned. We come to Him like children, with empty hands, and receive the gift of salvation through His death and resurrection.
We are all called to bring the next generation to Jesus. As parents and as a church family, we’re challenged to prioritize them, to remove the obstacles in their way, and to invest our time and resources in them—because one child who follows Jesus can change an entire family tree.
