The Tax and The Great Warning

The Tax and The Great Warning

It was tax season in Capernaum and Peter had no money to spare. Yet Jesus was not caught off guard. He cared for Peter and his family and told him where to go and what to do to find the money needed. The next evening around dinner Jesus called on His disciples asking them what they were arguing about earlier that day. Embarrassed, they sheepishly remained silent. While Jesus shared with them that if they truly want to be great, they must put the needs of others above themselves.

Matthew 17:27
In yesterday’s episode, we heard how Jesus revealed his glory to Peter, James, and John in a mountaintop experience that was both amazing and terrifying. Those three disciples caught a glimpse of Jesus, the true light of the world, and heard God once more affirm that Jesus was in fact His Son. Today we’ll hear about God’s provision and protection for His own. We’ll discover the special place children have in God’s heart and learn how serious He is about their care and well-being.
