What if you could go back in a time machine and see Jesus teach and serve. What might you see or think?
John the baptizer said, "He must increase and I must decrease." I want this to be true of me also. So to help foster the mindset, I've been looking intently at Jesus Christ in the gospels, imagining I'm there as an eyewitness of all He said and did. This is what I see.
