Growing Up in The Father’s House | Luke 2: 41--52 | Joey Zorina

What can a boy teach adults about growing up? Three weeks ago, we saw in v. 34 how Jesus was dedicated at the temple in Jerusalem as a child. After His parents had done everything according to the custom, they returned to Nazareth where Jesus grew in wisdom (v. 40). Luke now takes us back to Jerusalem as Jesus’ parents had to travel there. But this trip would turn out to be one of the most stressful events as they lose sight of Jesus. So in our passage, we see that children can teach us a great deal about:- a) Growing in following Jesus. b) Growing in understanding Jesus. c) Growing in treasuring Jesus.
