Jesus and what it means to be a Little One: The Matthew Series

Baldhead Bible Podcast

Children were not worth a lot to society in Jesus' day. They could not generate any money; instead, they cost you a ton of money as a parent. Plus, many of them never made it out of childhood. So, the average kid costs you a lot of money and heartache. Consequently, many were neglected and fought for survival at the margins of society. But then came Jesus. Jesus loved children, elevated their status, and saw in them the perfect example of what it meant to be one of His followers. Jesus also warned anyone who would hurt one of these little ones: mess with a child and you will literally have Hell to pay. Listen to hear the rest of the story and turn to Matthew 18 to follow along.
