The Church’s Family Name

Every family has a family name which does two things: 1. it identifies us from other families, and 2. it identifies us as one family — who’s part of our family and who isn’t. In today’s passage (Luke 8:19-21) Jesus pushes against traditional family ties, not to disparage the family, but to enlarge it to include those who we wouldn’t normally consider family. Our collective family name is JESUS! In these few verses we unpack the earth-shattering, unfathomable, ground-breaking challenge of Jesus to expand our concept of family to include any and all who “hear the message and do it” (Luke 8:15). 🌟 SUBSCRIBE ON YOUTUBE: https://bit.ly/2RMUKBE | 🔔Turn on notifications!🔔 💻 WEBSITE: https://lakesidechurch.ca 📸 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/lakesideonline 📻 SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/729iNjL9w6uyftta3vmfis?si=Owy4ylj8Q8e_-QogEKR5ow
