Does ‘all’ really mean all? That is a question Jesus’ earliest disciples surely wrestled with. There was a time they didn’t think he meant children, but he did.

In both word and deed, for Jesus ‘all’ really did mean all. Perhaps that’s why this version of the Disciples of Christ chalice really struck me. ‘All’ is a mighty expansive word for only having three letters.
