Segment 1: “Whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” (2 segments)“Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.” These striking words from Jesus are the focus of this Sunday’s Gospel. We unpack the readings with Rob Corzine.Segment 2: Understanding Abraham Kuyper’s Public Theology (2 segments)Abraham Kuyper was a man of many talents and achievements.
