What does it mean to truly follow Jesus? In this powerful teaching from Matthew 4:18–22, Glenn Bleakney unpacks the ancient rabbinic discipleship culture behind Jesus' call — and why "Follow me" meant something far more radical than we often realise.
Discover the meaning of avak harav (the dust of the rabbi), halakha (the walk), and haderech (the way) — and how Jesus flipped the entire rabbinic system by going to Galilee, calling the unqualified, and declaring that it's not your qualification that brings the calling, but the calling that qualifies you.
This teaching will challenge you to move beyond church attendance into genuine discipleship — marked by maturation and mobilisation — until his instincts become your instincts.
