Today on the podcast we continue through the book of Luke. Today we are continuing to see God address the fears we have of the world around us. Our food, money, clothing, shelter.

Today on the podcast we finish Luke 9 and look at what the cost of following Christ is. Christ calls us to Him and asks that we simply never turn back from that decision. While that sounds simple we wrestle with the more difficult application of this, or moreso why we make this difficult.

Today we continue through Luke 9 and are examining the cost of putting our faith into routine rather than Christ. We witness how the apostle's lack of faith in the authority of Christ causes them to be humbled and those they are meant to serve pain.

Today we continue through the book of Luke in our devotions. We are looking at how people are starting to clue into who Jesus is and what that means. At the same time Christ gives us a very powerful caution that those who are ashamed of Him or His word are going to find a God who is very ashamed of them down the road. We are  called as Christian men to be bold and strong in our testimony of both Christ and His teachings.

Today we continue to journey through Luke. Having come off of the story of the calming of the storms and our fear of a world with Christ in control we now come to Christ exhibiting his authority over demons and flesh. We witness his awesome power and the fear it creates in the heart of man. We wrestle with whether that fear drives us away from Christ or closer to Him and why He causes such fear.
