Matthew 16:21-28

21From that time on, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and undergo great suffering at the hands of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.22And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “God forbid it, Lord! This must never happen to you.” 23But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; for you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.”

24Then Jesus told his disciples, “If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 25For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it. 26For what will it profit them if they gain the whole world but forfeit their life? Or what will they give in return for their life? 27“For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay everyone for what has been done. 28Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”

Stop letting the peanut gallery dictate your worth.

We got a little behind this week and didn’t post Sunday’s sermon on schedule, but this message is well worth the wait. Here is our own Carla speaking on the Gospel of Matthew, sharing her personal experiences with being labeled, and reminding us why God's opinion is the only one that truly defines us.

It is a grounded, powerful reminder to let the critics' words roll right off your back.

It is deeply uncomfortable to watch Jesus ignore a desperate mother, dismiss her pleas, and equate her needs to a stray dog begging for scraps. Yet, this challenging text holds a profound mirror to our own human experience. We have all faced moments of feeling pushed aside, told to wait our turn, or treated like an outsider looking in on everyone else's feast.
