ABOUT THE EPISODE
Looking at Luke 11-14, Cherie and Tami pull out insightful big ideas to guide your reading plan. And they’re not shying away from the tough passages–like when Jesus tells His disciples they must “hate” their families? You have to carry your cross? Join us as we explore the depth of these verses!
INSIGHTS FROM CHERIE AND TAMI
Big Idea #1: Love Jesus most.
When Jesus says “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, and even his own life—he cannot be my disciple,” He’s not saying to literally hate them. This is a matter of priority. Is Jesus first in your life—above your love for family, spouse, friends? You are actually loving your family best when you love Jesus most. You can count the cost, but you can also experience the blessings on the other side.
Big Idea #2: Preparing for the Master’s Return
If Jesus were to come today, are you alert? Are you ready? There is this unexpected nature of Christ’s second coming that requires preparedness on our part. Believers should be continually expecting and ready for Christ’s return because the time of His coming is unknown. The enemy is looking to devour the ones who are spiritually apathetic.
