You’re one of the apostles, sitting with the others and with Jesus. You’re “in class” and the Teacher is calling on all of you to give an answer to two questions. You can either raise your hand and try to go before others and get it out of the way or you can wait a little and use the time (and the answers of others) to formulate a better answer. Then it happens: someone goes and gives the perfect answer (and He the Teacher’s pet, too)!
There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other Name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
Acts 4:12
What do you do now? Do you try to copy his answer in a different way or do you just resign yourself to the answer, “that’s what I was going to say!”?
But you know you can’t say it better. The answer given was perfect. Absolutely perfect!
I wonder if that was the feeling of the disciples when Jesus asked His questions, “who do people say that I am?” and “who do you say that I am?”
The first question seems pretty subjective and innocuous. The second one is different. There’s more behind the question; a seriousness. Something with weight. With import. There is more to the question. More behind it. But what?
If you were there with the others, what answer would you give – and why?
Jesus passed over the answers to the first question, “who do people sy that I am?” and gets right to the real, personal, essential question: “why do you say that I am?”
The question He has for Peter is for us, too. It gets at the heart of Faith.
If Jesus is just “one of the prophets,” there is no forgiveness. If Jesus is just a good person or teacher, there is no payment for sin. If He just showed us a way to live, there is no victory over death and the Devil. If He isn’t “the Christ” of God, all is lost.
That’s the Trust: “Jesus is the Christ of God,” He is the One in Whome there is salvation, and in no one else! He is it!
But that Truth isn’t yet personal. It is true whether or not we believe it, but when we take it to heart and believe by the power of the Holy Spirit, it changes from The way of Salvation to my way of salvation. It goes from a true confession to my confession. It goes from the way of Life to my way for everlasting life.
Halleluiah!

Join us, precious little ones for our T.Y.K.E.S. series from January through February 22.
Protected by God’s Armor
In Ephesians 6, Paul gives us the image of the full armor of God. Using different stories throughout the Bible, little ones will see each piece of armor at work.
“So put on all of God’s armor. Evil days will come. But you will be able to stand up to anything.” Ephesians 6:13a (NIrV)
Put on the Belt of Truth. We want truth all around us. We will speak truth. We will learn God’s word which is truth. We will obey the truth of what God says. Little Ones will learn, “God’s word is true.” John 8:28-40, The Truth Will Set You Free.
Put on the Breastplate of Righteousness. We will try to do the right thing. We will stay away from the wrong things that can hurt us. We will trust in God. Little Ones will learn, “God’s way is right.” 1 Samuel 17:20-49, David and Goliath.
Walk in peace. We are not afraid. Jesus gives us peace. We follow Jesus and share His peace with others. Little Ones will learn, “Jesus gives us peace.” Acts 13:1-5, The Church Sends Barnabas and Saul.
We have faith in God. He protects us like a shield and this helps our faith grows stronger. Little Ones will learn, “I can put my faith in God.” Judges 7:1-22, Gideon Defeats the Midianites.
Put on the helmet of salvation. Know that salvation comes through Jesus only. Jesus came to save us. Little Ones will learn, “Jesus came to save us.” Luke 23:31-43, The Crucifixion.
The sword of the Spirit is God’s word. When we learn God’s word it helps us. We can overcome any challenge or temptation. Little Ones will learn, “Knowing God’s word makes me strong.” Luke 4:1-13, The Temptation of Jesus.
Prayer is talking to God. We can talk to God at any time about anything. He listens and he answers us. He loves us and wants the best for us. Little Ones will learn, “I can always talk to God.” Acts 12:1-16, Peter’s Escape From Prison.
Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, God’s word, and prayer. These are all good things from God. They are the armor of God. They protect us and make us strong. Little Ones will learn, “I can wear the full armor of God.” Ephesians 6:10-18, The Full Armor of God.

We have three options this year for you to answer that question!
Then Jesus Came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:18-20
For those called to Mission but not to Africa, there is another opportunity!
Amy (who was on our team), has been a leader with GraceWorks Alaska a couple of times now. When I (Angie) came back from Kenya and shared a few stories with the Battle group a few of the youth expressed wanting to go on a trip. So, I gathered more information.
Graceworks Alaska: Make an Impact Through Volunteering
July 12-18, 2026
You have to be 12 years old to go on the GraceWorks Alaska trip.

In addition to this you can attend as an adult without a youth as well.
Pricing is $850 per person to GraceWorks and estimated flight is around $1,700 per person.
Trinity Klein and other participating churches address both the spiritual needs and physical vision of Kenyans through short term mission trips.
Our mission teams conduct vision clinics while spreading the Word of God to all who attend.
A single team of eight can reach hundreds of people in a single week, giving each visitor clear vision of Jesus Christ’s healing plus providing eye care through onsite services and materials.
