Conversations with Jesus - Jesus’ Parents, at the Temple

Sunday 14th July, 6:30 service, Dan Bright. As a young boy, Jesus was taken to the temple in Jerusalem, at Passover. It was on their way back that they realised Jesus wasn’t with them, but still at the temple. He was found listening to the teachers and asking questions. People were “amazed” at his understanding and questions. Jesus tells his parents he had to be in his Father’s house, pointing to his identity and ministry. Jesus was one with God, and prioritised his relationship with his heavenly father. Each of us is invited into this story - to be lost and then to be found by a loving God who isn't hiding, but just needs to be sought after.
