Listen "When The Prince of Peace Gets Violent: The Divisive Jesus"

Episode Synopsis

This past Sunday we looked at Luke 12:49-56 and the teaching that Jesus did not come to bring peace but division. This puzzling text can best be understood as a description of what happens as God shows up in new places (that there is often divisions and disagreements which follow) and not a literal command. The command for us remains to stay committed to Jesus and each other as we seek out a life shaped by faith.
