How strong are words? Mark used the word “Indignant” to describe a situation. We have a watered down version of Jesus’ personality. When the children were kept from Jesus, He was “Indignant” with the disciples. Jesus showed anger/indignation because he valued the importance of children. Can you imagine a church without children? Remember that Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
