Dinner With Jesus - Week Two - March 19, 2023 - Stacie Bartels

During a pivotal dinner with religious leaders of the day in Luke 11, Jesus offers observations on living life without being bound up by religious rules, requirements, and judgments. 1) The condition of your heart and mind matters 2) See the person sitting across from you as they truly are and 3) Your religion shouldn’t be so heavy that others can’t carry it. Jesus cautions us not to focus on our outside religious appearance because that can move us away from the love of God, which can then have a ripple effect on those around us.
