No One is Above Reproach


Even though many of us are seasoned believers, there are times when church leadership discounts our opinions and refuses to accept our counsel. After the resurrection, Jesus first appeared to Mary Magdalene. When she told those who were mourning that she had seen Jesus alive they did not believe her. Afterward Jesus appeared to two disciples while they were walking in the country. Once again, the disciples did not believe this firsthand account. Mark wrote, “Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen” (Mark 16:14 NIV).
