What does Jesus really mean when He tells adults to become like children?
In Matthew 18, Jesus completely redefines greatness—not as influence, perfection, or spiritual maturity—but as humility, trust, and childlike dependence on God. In our study today, we explore what it looks like to lay down pride, comparison, and self-reliance in order to behold God as our King with a surrendered heart.
Together, we’ll unpack:
Why Jesus places a child in the center—and what that reveals about the Kingdom of Heaven
The difference between childlike faith and childish faith
How humility positions us to truly see and receive God
What it means to live under God’s authority with trust rather than fear
This study invites us to unlearn what the world has taught us about power and success—and return to the posture Jesus honors most: a heart that kneels, trusts, and looks up.
Matthew 18:3 “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”
