Matthew 10:34–42 — Not Peace but a Sword
About this episode
The episode discusses the radical call of Jesus to prioritize Him above all else, emphasizing the transformative nature of losing one's life for His sake.
The hope of the gospel is not a Jesus we keep among our other loves, but a Jesus who lays claim to all of it, because he himself is the life and peace we long for. He came near, walked the path of the cross before us, and now says: lose your life for my sake and find it.
