I Hate You

Send us Fan Mail What would happen if you loved Jesus so completely that, by comparison, everything else—even your dearest relationships—looked like hatred? This radical concept from Luke 14:25-27 forms the foundation of true discipleship and challenges us to examine what we're really willing to sacrifice for our faith. Through powerful personal testimony, we explore the transformative impact of what might appear to be "stupid faith"—those moments when following God's prompting makes no logical sense but produces extraordinary results. From praying for strangers in public to forgiving those who've wounded us deeply, these acts of obedience often feel uncomfortable or even ridiculous. Yet they're precisely the moments when God works most powerfully through us. The "17 Challenge" provides a practical framework for cultivating this kind of courageous faith: five minutes in prayer, five minutes in worship, five minutes in Scripture reading, inviting one person to church, and performing one small act of faith daily. This simple discipline creates space for God to work, turning us from reservoirs that merely collect blessing into channels that distribute it to others. The reality is that nothing meaningful emerges from comfort zones. Throughout Scripture, we see examples of faith that appeared foolish to observers: Noah building an ark without rain, Moses stretching his staff over the sea, Jesus using spit and mud to heal blindness. Similarly, the disciples at Pentecost appeared drunk as they spoke in tongues, yet that small group of 120 believers sparked a movement that continues to transform lives worldwide. Are you ready to abandon everything for the sake of the cross? Your comfort, reputation, logic, relationships, or pride? The invitation stands—to step out in "stupid faith" and discover that what looks ridiculous to the world produces eternal impact in God's kingdom. Join us in becoming world-changers who love unconditionally, forgive completely, and stand unwavering in the truth. Ending Support the show
