Listen to Mark 9:33-37

Who Is the Greatest?

33 And 1they came to Capernaum. And when he was in the house 2he asked them, “What were you discussing on the way? ”
34 But they kept silent, for on the way 3they had argued with one another about who was the greatest.
35 And he sat down and called the twelve. And he said to them, 4“If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all. ”
36 And he took a child and put him in the midst of them, and 5taking him in his arms, he said to them,
37 6“Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, and 7whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me. ”
