Who do you think you are?

Recognize this teen? Writes Calgary columnist Bryan Borzykowski, "The 16-year -old Canadian kid, in case you've been living under a rock, is one of the biggest musicians in North America right now." And Borzykowski says, "It may be just me, but I really want to hate Justin Bieber." He says it tongue-in-cheek, but there is something about one of our own making it big that irks us. Jesus ran into that same sentiment: A prophet is without honour in his own town. Today people are still asking, "Whom does Jesus think he is?" (see last week's Macleans.) This Sunday we listen as five people will profess that they believe Jesus is the Son of God and that he is their Saviour. And then we'll celebrate with a baptism and the Lord's Supper. Join us!
