📖 Gospel: Luke 6:27-38

Why does Jesus tell us to “love our enemies, lend expecting nothing back, and offer the other cheek?” At first, these words may seem counterintuitive or even weak, but they reveal a profound truth about friendship, happiness, and intimacy with God. In this episode, we explore how true friendship forms through shared actions, how loving as God loves brings us closer to Him, and why mercy is the key to our own happiness.

Through the moving story of Aaron, a man trapped in the wounds of his past, we witness the transformative power of forgiveness and the freedom that comes when we embrace God’s mercy.
