Lost & Found

Luke 2:41-52

January 2, 2022

Have you ever lost something really important? Like a child? Mary and Joseph managed to lose track of their twelve year old son. Their adventure of losing him, looking for him and locating him provide some important lessons for those who want to follow Jesus faithfully.

Losing Jesus

Get comfortable with the status quo.
Assume Jesus is with you on your journey.
Rely on others to stay connected.

Looking for Jesus

They were looking in the wrong places.
They were looking for the wrong Jesus.

Locating Jesus

They found Him in the temple.
They found Him studying the scriptures.
We find Him with the outcasts and the marginalized.
We find Him with other believers.
