Have you ever had a family member in trouble and you wanted to help? Jesus’ cousin John (the baptizer) was put in prison by King Herod. When he heard of this, Jesus did not try to “spring John out of jail,” but returned to his home town and boldly proclaimed his ministry as the Messiah. In a place where others thought little of him as a local boy, Jesus declared a great prophecy from Isaiah about who he was, and what he would do!
