11 03 2024 MGBC Dr. Josh Morea The Greatest in the Kingdom: "Who is the Greatest"

In this compelling episode, we delve into Matthew 18, exploring the profound question that intrigued the disciples: "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" As the disciples grapple with this concept, Jesus offers a transformative lesson on humility and the true nature of greatness in His kingdom.

Through the lens of pride and ambition, we witness the disciples' struggle to understand their place in the divine hierarchy, often comparing themselves to one another. However, Jesus redirects their focus by placing a child at the center, emphasizing the importance of humility, dependency, and vulnerability as key attributes for entering the kingdom of heaven.

We are invited to reflect on our own lives, recognizing the pervasive nature of pride and the need for a child-like faith. Through vivid storytelling, the episode challenges us to see beyond societal measures of greatness and to embrace the humility exemplified by Jesus Himself, who, despite being the King of Kings, humbled Himself for the sake of humanity.

Join us as we uncover three crucial observations from this passage, urging us to align our hearts with the will of the true King and to serve others with genuine humility, understanding that in the kingdom of heaven, it is not our status that matters, but our willingness to follow Christ's example.
