The Significance Of Insignificance

In the Gospel of Mark, Chapter 14, verses 12-16, Jesus’s earthly ministry was ending, and his arrest, trial and crucifixion loomed like a threatening dark cloud on the horizon.  He sends two of His disciples into the city and tells them to look for "a man carrying a waterpot.”  This man would lead them to the place where Jesus would observe the Jewish Passover with His disciples.  While performing a task that was usually done by women in this culture, this man is a timeless reminder that there is significance in insignificance.  Preaching during the 2023 Big Enough Conference at the Clay Street Missionary Baptist Church, Shelbyville, Kentucky, Dr. Stubblefield tells us why.
