Sermon Title: Let the Children Come - Part 1: Turn Your Heart to Children
Speaker: Andrew Webb

Malachi 4:4-6
"Remember the law of my servant Moses, the decrees and laws I gave him at Horeb for all Israel. "See, I will send the prophet Elijah to you before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes. He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents; or else I will come and strike the land with total destruction."

Luke 1:17
And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."

Mark 10:13
People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them.

Mark 10:14
When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Mark 10:15
Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."

Mark 10:16
And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.

1. POINT the Kids in Your Life to Jesus

2. RECEIVE the Kingdom of God Like a Child

"Do you trust God is capable of control?" Matthew 19:26 NIV > Mark 6:5 NIV > How do I release the illusion of control to an omnipotent God? John 11:1-7, 11-27, 32, 43-44 NIV > Colossians 3:3-4 NIV > What is one area of your life you need to release control over? What is God speaking to you through this message? What is one thing you can do this week to live out the teaching?
