Jesus teaches love. But it’s not a sentimental or cute love. It’s a love that takes risks, requires grit, and most times seems impossible.

Jesus preaches for everyone: a message of blessing, inclusion, and resilience. The place he chooses to preach from says as much–maybe more–than the words he offers. Luke 6:17-26

Deep love leads to great joy.

What if calling the parable “the Good Samaritan” risks missing the very point Jesus was trying to make? Jesus invites us into difficult and challenging conversations where transformation can truly happen.

Jesus offers a strange metaphor for worn out and exhausted people: a yoke. But maybe that’s the very key to full and freeing rest.
