What we discuss in this episode:
  • Hypocrisy Will Be Exposed: Jesus warns against living a double life. Whether it’s self-righteous showboating or hidden struggles, everything done in the dark will come to light. But there’s also hope—hidden acts of faith and kindness will eventually bear fruit for God’s kingdom. 🌱

  • Don’t Worry About Material Things: Jesus reminds us to trust God to meet our needs. Whether it’s food for the table or Christmas gifts under the tree, we are called to seek first God’s kingdom and trust Him to provide.

    • Consider the Lilies: How do we silence the worries of life and focus on what truly matters? Steve and Rowan discuss the art of “getting beneath the surface noise” and finding peace in obedience to Christ. 🌸
  • Division in the Kingdom: One of the harder teachings in Luke 12 is when Jesus says He has come to bring fire and division rather than peace. Why does following Jesus create tension and division? Rowan unpacks this as the “clash of kingdoms,” where living out Christ’s values naturally confronts the world’s priorities.

Takeaways for Today
  1. Trust God for Provision: Material wealth and outward appearances don’t define our worth. Instead, focus on seeking God’s kingdom and sharing His love with others.
  2. Live with Integrity: A life that’s consistent—both in private and in public—brings glory to God and builds His kingdom.
  3. Embrace the Creative Tension: Following Jesus will often put us at odds with the world. This isn’t something to seek out, but it is a natural result of living by His values.

Luke 12 challenges us to realign our priorities and trust in God’s provision, even when life feels uncertain.
