Thicker Than Blood

SCRIPTURE:

Mark 3:20-21, 31-35

^20 Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat. ^21 When his family^[a] heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”

^31 Then Jesus’ mother and brothers arrived. Standing outside, they sent someone in to call him. ^32 A crowd was sitting around him, and they told him, “Your mother and brothers are outside looking for you.”

^33 “Who are my mother and my brothers?” he asked.

^34 Then he looked at those seated in a circle around him and said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! ^35 Whoever does God’s will is my brother and sister and mother.”
