In this episode we look at Mark 10:17-31. This passage reflects on Jesus' interaction with a wealthy man who seeks guidance on what he must/can do to inherit eternal life. Jesus teaches that no one is truly good except God and that our worldly reliance on ourselves (that can lead to wealth or possessions) can be a barrier to entering the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus teaches that salvation is not achieved through human effort but is only possible through God's grace and Jesus' sacrifice. Therefore we need to surrender what holds us back, (again) embrace humility in service, and trust in God's power, not our own.
