Are You Testing or Trusting Jesus? | The Gospels | Mark 10:1–16

Are you trying to control Jesus or follow him? Does commitment to God actually restrict your freedom? And why does Jesus point to children as the model of faith? In today’s episode, Jeff shares how Mark 10:1–16 challenges our consumeristic view of freedom and shows us that true life is found in wholehearted commitment and childlike dependence on Jesus.
