Carpenter

Scripture Passage: Mark 6:1-3

Joseph was a carpenter. The people thought Jesus was Joseph's son. As the oldest son in the family, Jesus was expected to take over His father's business. So Jesus learned to be a carpenter. But God called Him to go and tell people about God's Kingdom. He left the carpenter shop and travelled around teaching and healing people. Building God's Kingdom is more important than building houses.

For every house has a builder, but God is the one who made everything. (NLT)
