Matters of the Heart

In this episode, Justin and Jewelle explore Luke 5-6:11, focusing on the calling of the first disciples, Jesus' proclamation of God's forgiveness, and Jesus' tense interactions with the Pharisees. Justin and Jewelle discuss the significance of faith, the social implications of Jesus' actions, and the deeper meanings behind his teachings, particularly Jesus' focus on intentions versus outcomes. The conversation highlights the radical nature of Jesus' ministry and the challenges he faced from religious authorities as he sought to focus the spiritual life on the heart rather than external rituals or actions.
