It's a question we ask about quarterbacks, pitchers, and point guards—but Jesus' disciples asked it about the Kingdom of Heaven, and His answer flipped their entire framework upside down.\nIn this message from Matthew 18:1-6, guest speaker Jeff Stemple unpacks what happens when the disciples' quiet argument about status and rank finally bursts into the open, and Jesus responds not with a ranking, but with a child standing in the middle of the room. Jeff explores how greatness in God's Kingdom isn't measured by achievement, platform, or comparison, but through humble, childlike dependence on God.\nAlong the way, Jeff digs into what it means to humble yourself before you're humbled, how what we value reveals what we actually believe, and why welcoming and protecting children reflects the very heart of Jesus. Whether you're wrestling with insecurity, control, or the constant pull to measure up, this message points to a different scoreboard altogether—one built on trust, not status.\n\nWatch all our sermons on our youtube channel \"Flipside Christian Church\"\nJoin us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.\n37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636\nFor more visit us at flipside.church\nFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/-15b91ZN5YSTvcMaBg88Un0tBNj8bvuxIlVEwGcwztE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzYxMDAvMTU4Mzc4/MjMzNy1hcnR3b3Jr/LmpwZw.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
