John the Baptist was not your average individual. He was an unexpected child; he lived away from society in the desert; he wore strange clothing and ate strange food; he was bold, even offensive at times. Yet he helped launch Jesus career. In return, Jesus had nothing but praise for him (Matt. 11: 7-15). If we want to be like Jesus, we must not pick and choose our brothers and sisters in Gods family. We need to embrace other believers and demonstrate our unity in Christ, no matter how awkward or inconvenient that may be.
