Jesus welcomes the children – Mark 10:13-16

This Sunday is the 17th Sunday after Pentecost. Here’s what Sundays and Seasons says about the readings that we’ll hear:

Today we hear James warn against selfish ambition, while the disciples quarrel over which one of them is the greatest. Jesus tells them the way to be great is to serve. Then, to make it concrete, he puts in front of them a flesh-and-blood child. We are called to welcome the children God puts in front of us, to make room for them in daily interaction, and to give them a place of honour in the assembly.
