Today’s episode goes deep, because Luke 9 is deep. Jesus sends out the Twelve, feeds the five thousand, reveals His glory on the mountain, calls us to carry our cross, and teaches us what it really means to leave behind the life we thought we wanted.
We break down the historical context behind each moment. From why people expected a political Messiah to what “let the dead bury their own dead” and “don’t look back” actually meant in the first-century Jewish world.
Then we bring it home: What does it look like to walk forward when your past is pulling you back? We dig into real-life valleys: addictions, false identities, chasing money, overworking, and numbing instead of healing, and we talk about how Christ guides us out and calls us higher.
If you’re ready for a raw, honest, life-changing conversation… this one will hit you hard.
