    What lessons can we learn from how Jesus calls his disciples?ย  Is Levi the perfect example of how the Rich Young Ruler should have responded to Jesus? We discuss that and much more in this week's episode.

    Jesus wants to challenge our assumptions of discipleship. Today we discuss a passage where Jesus refuses to view kingdom work through rose-tinted glasses. Which causes us to struggle with the practical applications of this passage.

    You don't have to be saved for Jesus to serve you. Jesus washes the feet of Judas just a short while before his ultimate betrayal. What do we do with this story? What does it mean that Jesus is willing to do such a lowly chore with his precious remaining time?

    Why is Jesus so comfortable sending out the disciples when it's clear they still don't get it?

    What happens when the Holy Spirit comes?ย  How does Jesus live in the moment while also keeping the eternal perspective? Are we excited by the idea of living by the Spirit or do we see it as a challenge?

    As the title says Jason is currently on sabbatical. His church has been gracious enough to provide this opportunity to him over the next few months. In this episode, we talk about what that is going to look like for Jason and touch on what that will look like for A&P.

    How does Jesus describe grace? Why does there have to be a judgment of our sins anyway? That and more this week as we discuss the first half of the Parable of the Unmerciful Servant.
