Hoy escuchamos a Santiago advertir contra la ambición egoísta, mientras los discípulos se pelean por quién de ellos es el más grande. Jesús les dice que la manera de ser grande es sirviendo. Luego, para hacerlo concreto, pone frente a ellos a un niño de carne y hueso. Estamos llamados a acoger a los niños que Dios pone frente a nosotros, a hacerles lugar en la interacción diaria y a darles un lugar de honor en la asamblea. Únase a nosotros para nuestro culto que comienza a las 12:00 p. m. en la Iglesia Luterana Atonement (1980 Silver Lake Road New Brighton, MN 55112). ¡Todos son bienvenidos!

Someone who isn’t part of Jesus’ own circle is casting out demons in Jesus’ name, and the disciples want him stopped. They appeal to Jesus, as Joshua did to Moses about the elders who prophesied without official authorization. Like Moses, Jesus refuses to see this as a threat. Jesus welcomes good being done in his name, even when it is not under his control. The circle we form around Jesus’ word must be able to value good being done in ways we wouldn’t do it, by people we can’t keep tabs on. Our service will be live streamed from Cross of Glory Lutheran Church starting at 8:30 AM. Click on the image above to watch the live stream.
