At This Table [Wolves pt. 1]

What this episode covers

Main Idea: Judas, The Betrayer. (Luke 22:21) When we think about the idea of a wolf in sheep's clothing, we typically think of the leader/teacher being the wolf, but we neglect to consider the people next to us. Today we are going to unpack the concept of wolves at our table by looking at the person Judas. We are going to use his story to learn warning signs of possible vicious “wolves” disguised as innocent sheep. The reason this topic is so important is because so many people could avoid spiritual and social injuries if they knew they were being influenced or attacked by a wolf in sheep’s clothing. In this talk, we’re going to look at what could have motivated him to do what he did, identify the methods in which acted upon to divide, and analyze the results of his divisive behavior. 1.
