Episode Synopsis

You be the judge. Make an assessment of the statement below:“I know what God wants me to do, the path he is calling me to walk, but with every ounce of my will, in the deepest most visceral sense of my being, I want to go another way.”When one is having this experience is it wrong? Is it sinful?Is it even possible to overcome such a deep conflict of will and follow God where we don’t want to go?On Thursday night after the Passover meal, Jesus speaks directly to his disciples about what is about to happen within the next hours. In the words of Andreas J. Kostenberger and Justin Taylor, “Jesus promises restoration even as he predicts [the disciples] failure.” Jesus tells them that their wills will turn against him and they will betray him. However, this betrayal will not have the final word.Take a few minutes this weekend to read and pray through Luke 22:14-53. For those who have been betrayed, for those who have betrayed others, for all of us, Jesus shows us, gives us, a way to health.Pastor David
