Humility Warning
In our series, we've been uncovering the question about Jesus, "Who Is This Guy?" In Mark 9 at the end, there is a dispute amongst the disciples about who is the greatest among them. Jesus gives them a Kingdom Humility Warning with these words,
Sitting down, Jesus called the twelve and said to them, "If anyone wants to be first,he shall be last of all and servant of all."
Taking a child, He set him before them, and taking him in His arms, He said to them,"Whoever receives one child like this in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me does not receive Me, but Him who sent Me."
Mark 9:35-37 NASB
WOW. The Kingdom of God is nothing like the world where people can strive to be great. The Servant is the Greatest of all! Listen online to Phil's message

Precious Lamb Preschool Prayer Update
We had the privilege of graduating 8 students this summer. We are so thankful for our time with their families and are excited to hear all the great things they will accomplish. As our children prepare to
enter kindergarten and a new Precious Lamb school year begins this Fall, will you consider making a gift to allow each new child who enters Precious Lamb receive a high quality early-childhood education to ensure school readiness and a lifetime love of learning?
