Join Ryan, your Bible nerd, in this engaging episode of our series on the Gospel of Luke as he dives into Chapter 14, verses 15-35. This passage reveals Jesus' profound teachings during a meal with a Pharisee, where He shares the parable of the Great Banquet. Ryan reflects on the excuses made by invited guests and how these reveal our own tendencies to prioritize worldly distractions over God's invitation.

As Jesus emphasizes the urgency of responding to His call, he discusses the cost of discipleship, highlighting that following Him requires sacrifices and a commitment that transcends earthly relationships. The discussion tackles tough topics, such as the hyperbolic language of "hating" one’s family in favor of discipleship and the necessity of carrying one’s cross.

Tune in for thoughtful insights on humility, generosity, and the importance of counting the cost in our faith journeys. Discover how we can prepare ourselves for the abundant life Christ offers and what it truly means to lift others up as we embrace the values of the Kingdom.
