| In Mark 3:21 and 31, we see Jesus’ family thinking, “He’s out of his mind.” They tried to talk to him, perhaps to talk some “sense” into him. But after Jesus’ death and resurrection, his mother and brothers were in the Upper Room, now followers of Jesus. Though he didn’t let their misunderstanding of his mission hamper his ministry, he also didn’t neglect them. Their salvation was as much a priority as “the world” he came to save. Is the salvation of your own family a priority for you? |
