In this episode, we explore Mark 2:18–22, where Jesus is questioned about why His disciples aren’t fasting like those of John and the Pharisees. His answer? A striking metaphor about weddings, new cloth, and new wine in old wineskins. What is Jesus really saying about spiritual practices, tradition, and the radical newness of His message? Join us as we unpack how this short passage challenges us to embrace the transformation Jesus brings—and to be vessels ready for something new.
🔹 Why didn’t Jesus’ disciples fast?
🔹 What do old garments and wineskins have to do with the kingdom of God?
🔹 How can we discern when tradition supports faith—and when it might need renewal?
Whether you’re new to the Gospel of Mark or diving deeper into discipleship, this episode invites you to reflect on how Jesus reshapes our understanding of spiritual discipline and religious life.
