The Xenos

from The Bertonians · host Robert Alexander Portillo

Matthew 25:31–46 places every nation before Christ’s throne and hinges on a single phrase: “the least of these.” In this teaching, we wrestle with who Jesus means—and why our answer exposes the shape of our discipleship toward the hungry, the stranger, the sick, and the imprisoned.Reflection Who in your life or community do you instinctively avoid or overlook—and what story have you told yourself to justify it? Imagine Jesus standing in front of you, disguised as the person you fear, judge, or ignore most. What would you say or do differently—and what’s stopping you nowWhen have you felt like a “stranger,” unseen or unwelcome? What would it mean to let that pain become a bridge instead of a wall?Links: www. sanberto.com/linksDonate: www.buymeacoffee.com/sanbertoSlides: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/2gpd09r088m0mvmiwhzey/The-Xenos.pdf?rlkey=gh3eimh8dodvq85ja90udz9ir&st=p0pce19u&dl=0
