Teaching Jesus slips away to pray before dawn

When Jesus calls you to follow Him, He's worth dropping everything for - He's the King, and He brings good news.

  • At Jesus' baptism, God said, "You are My Son, whom I love." How does it feel that God calls you His loved child too?
  • Jesus brought good news and healed people everywhere. What good news about Jesus would you want to share?
