Jesus confronts our worldly understanding of greatness by teaching that the greatest in the kingdom of heaven are those who humble themselves like little children and truly trust God.

• Being like a child means trusting God completely rather than striving to be better than others
• Humility isn't thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less often
• Biblical conflict resolution follows a clear process: address sin privately, then bring witnesses, then involve church leadership
• Social media call-outs violate God's intended pattern for resolving conflicts among believers
• Forgive others because you have been forgiven much, as illustrated in the parable of the unmerciful servant
• When others cause offense, intercede for them in prayer before taking action
• In church relationships, we should lower expectations of people and raise expectations of God
