Luke | Am I Following Jesus or Just Religion? | Kevin Barra | Cypress | March 22, 2026

Who’s really in charge of your life? In Luke 6, Jesus steps into direct conflict with religious leaders and exposes a tension that still exists today. It’s not just about what you believe, but who you’re following. Religion tries to earn God’s approval through rules, while Jesus invites us into a relationship marked by grace, surrender, and transformation. This message challenges us to examine our hearts. Are we open to what God is doing, or are we holding onto control? Because when we resist Jesus, we risk missing the very work He’s doing right in front of us.• Jesus confronts the difference between religion and a real relationship with God• A hard heart leads to criticism, control, and missing the work of God• God works through surrendered people, but may move around those who resist HimKey Scriptures:Luke 6:1–16Jeremiah 17:9Proverbs 4:23Proverbs 14:30Take time this week to honestly ask: who is leading my life? Invite Jesus to search your heart and surrender every area to Him. If this message challenged you, share it with someone who needs to hear it.Bayou City Fellowship Cypress Campus | Kevin Barra | March 22, 2026https://linktr.ee/bayoucityfellowship
