“Like father, like son,” “the apple doesn't fall far from the tree,” and “from a pumpkin comes a pumpkin” are all common expressions––well, maybe not that last one!––that help illustrate the same truth: a thing will reflect that which produced it. Jesus employs this logic in John 8:37–47 with some strong words for his hearers. Listen as Pastor Luke Herche preaches on this passage, providing the context (a story of two families), the principle (children are like their fathers), and the call (believe in the Son).
