#200: Who is the Greatest?

Sherilyn R. Grant and Christian Parenting
About this episode

Mark 9:14-35. The disciples were arguing among themselves concerning who was the greatest. They were concerned about who had the most influence. Doesn't that sound like the world we live in today? Everyone wants to be an influencer, but who is willing to be a servant? In today's episode, we learn what it means to be the least in the Kingdom of God.
