Blessing Our Children

It is fitting that after Jesus teaches about marriage, Matthew, our Gospel writer, now turns to one of the biggest blessings from the marriage covenant—children. So, the first fifteen verses from Matthew 19 are all about the family. Today, we will learn a significant Jewish tradition of blessing little children. We’re also going to learn how we can apply this blessing to our own children and grandchildren.
