In this episode of Between Sermons, we unpack Luke 6 and have an honest conversation about the Sabbath, religious pressure, prayer, and what it really means to follow Jesus. From Jesus healing on the Sabbath to confronting the Pharisees’ man-made rules, this conversation challenges the difference between religion and relationship. We also dive into: Why Jesus called Himself “Lord of the Sabbath” The danger of religious control and performance How modern Christians can unintentionally add rules God never created What true spiritual rest actually looks like Why Jesus prayed all night before choosing the disciples How prayer aligns us with God’s will—not just our comfort This episode is real, practical, funny, deep, and full of moments that will make you rethink how you approach faith, rest, leadership, and discipleship. If you’ve ever felt spiritually exhausted, overwhelmed by expectations, or confused about what God actually requires from you… this conversation is for you.
