This blog contains comments and teaching regarding living the Christian faith and comments on the intersection of faith and many other aspects of life from pop culture to science. It also has some stories--hopefully they are amusing stories--from my life. ~Dan

Receiving The Kingdom Like A Child
Jesus said this, one time, “I tell you the truth, anyone who
doesn’t receive the Kingdom
of God like a child will
never enter it.” Luke 18:17. There is a
form of innocent and accepting trust that children have—they haven’t had time
to become jaded or cynical yet—that I believe Jesus is commending here. It’s a great image and it’s compelling. I
want to trust Him like that. How about you?

Him because you can’t trust Him in the way that discipleship requires if you
believe you can fool Him.

can happen for wealthy people, of course, but it can happen for people who
don’t have a lot of money, as well. The
wisdom of the Bible calls for us to trust God, not money.
