Summary
In our third day focusing on what it means to be the child of God, we’re going to look at how we can live with childlike faith. One of the wonders of being children of the Creator and Sustainer of all, is our ability to let go of fear, and live with trust.
May you experience peace and courage today as you allow God to take burdens off of your shoulders, and live with childlike faith.
Our Scripture for today comes from Mark 10:15, and today's worship is Faithful Now by Vertical Worship.

Help more Spanish-speakers connect with God
Two years ago, First15 began a Spanish version called Primeros15. And God is using it to impact many lives. But today, he’s calling us to more.
More Spanish-speaking men and women connecting with him and impacting the culture around them.
That’s why we’ve just launched a summer campaign to deepen the reach and impact of Primeros15 — and why we’re asking you to jump in with us!
We’ve set a $100,000 goal,so please give to help more Spanish-speakers connect with God.

| 0:47.3 | Scripture says, truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it. |
| 0:59.0 | To have faith like a child is to blindly trust the goodness, care, leadership, and provision of a father. |
| 1:08.9 | Jesus continually called his disciples to a lifestyle of surrender and trust in him, |

| 1:25.5 | and the disciples rebuked them. |
| 1:30.5 | But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, let the children come to me. Do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. |
| 1:39.2 | Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it. And he took them in |

| 2:16.3 | and that if we place our trust in him, we will have a resurrection |
