Who’s on First?

Rev. Dr. Scott Seidler,  Senior Pastor

“He must become greater, I must become less.”—John the Baptist

Abbott and Costello humored audiences through many movies and comedy shorts in the 1930’s-1950’s.  Youtube “Who’s on First”, Abbott and Costello, and you’ll instantly see why. 

Their play on words is hilarious.  The question for Christians, though, is no joke.  Who is on first in your life?  Can you name that person?

Today’s quality-control check is an assessment of sorts, an invitation for us to evaluate the places in our life where the Son of God and Savior of the world sits.  There are always opportunities for growth.  That’s the beauty of serving our God, He doesn’t ever expect from us a time of initial perfection. 

Through Christ, He redeems us from the power of sin so that we can constantly, relentlessly “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness” knowing that more will be added to our plate of opportunity as His servants.
