Tonight's family reading · Dharan
Jesus Washes Their Feet — a 5-minute devotion for Dharan families
John 13:1-17 · Leadership that kneels
On his last night, Jesus took off his outer robe, wrapped a towel round his waist and did the job of the lowest servant in the house — including for the man about to betray him.
Use this one on the Dharan weekend, when there is room for a longer conversation. Read John 13:1-17, talk through the question properly, then write the memory verse somewhere everyone will see it on Monday.
Memory verse
“Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.”John 13:14
Table question
What is the least glamorous job in our home, and who could do it tomorrow without being asked?
30-second prayer
Jesus, you knelt. Make us the kind of family that serves without being asked. Amen.
Make it stick: on the way through Dharan tomorrow, one person says the first half of "Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet." and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.
Tomorrow: the new command (John 13:31-35). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
