What's the Best Thing for Kids? | Mark 9-10

About this episode

The episode discusses Jesus' teachings on the importance of welcoming children and the implications for parents and ministry volunteers.

What's the best thing for kids? Jesus answers that directly in Mark 9 and Mark 10 — and it's not what the disciples expected. In this sermon from our Mark My Words series, we walk through three truths every parent, grandparent, and kids ministry volunteer needs to hear: welcoming a child means welcoming Jesus himself, causing a child to stumble puts you in serious danger, and the kingdom of God belongs to those who come like little ones. If you care about raising kids in the faith, pointing families to the gospel, or just figuring out what childlike faith actually looks like — this one's for you.Subscribe to our channel so you don't miss the rest of the Mark My Words series. And if you're in the Boynton Beach, FL area, we'd love to see you in person — join us Sundays at 9:00am or 10:30am at Boynton Beach Community Church. More info at https://bbcconline.com
