This is a question of discipleship. Now that’s a very churchy word, and some people aren’t sure what it means, but it because of its connection to the label Christian, many folks are uncomfortable with the label. But let’s understand that the word disciple is a lot like the word apprentice. When you are an apprentice, it means you learn from someone. Sometimes people in a specialized careers, go to be an apprentice under an expert so they can learn all they can from that person.

The question of Jesus we consider today is one that is most important for any person who has ever been torn down by criticism and condemnation of others: “Where are your accusers?” It’s the simplest of the questions Jesus asked, but the conditions surrounding it are anything but.

During this season of Lent we are considering some of the questions Jesus asks. Today’s question is taken from this challenging text we just heard: “For if you love only those who love you, what reward do you have?” (CEV)
This is a question of compassion. I would suppose that compassion for most of us makes us think of acts of mercy like caring for someone who is sick. But the heart of the word compassion is, obviously, passion. Passion comes from a Latin word that means suffer. That is why we talk about the passion of Jesus, it means the suffering of Jesus. Therefore compassion means “to suffer with.” That can mean a couple of things: sharing someone else’s suffering, or putting up with someone who causes us suffering.

This is the question we consider today in our series for this Lenten season, The Questions Jesus Asks. Jesus asked over 300 questions in the Gospel. Even more than parables, Jesus used questions as a teaching tool. He understood that the lessons that stick with us are not the ones handed to us. They are brought out of us, and good questions draw out the best lessons. So what might Jesus want to draw out of us by asking, “What do you call me Lord and do not do what I tell you?”

Lent is meant to be a spiritually transformative period. We remember Jesus’ suffering and death, but more than remember, we do things that help up us enter into his own passion, his very life, so that we can better experience His risen life on Easter. To help us this Lent we will consider Questions Jesus Asks.
You may not realize just how many questions Jesus asked in the Gospels. In fact, let’s take a little poll to see what you think. How many would say Jesus asked around 20 questions? 50 questions? 100? 300? The last group would be right. Actually Jesus asked more than 300 questions in the Gospels. As much as parables were an important teaching method of Jesus, so were asking questions.

We conclude today a series on relationships called Tug of War recognizing, as Pastor Jevon has pointed out the last couple weeks, that relationships involve give and take, tension like in a tug of war. And healthy relationships understand that not every battle should be won. But somewhere along the way, we have to change the analogy. Somewhere we need to move from being in a tug of war and come together on the same side.

We continue on in our relationship series Tug of war today as we look closer into how we deal with the constant pull in our relationships. Even healthy relationships come with a constant back and forth. How we handle this often determines the quality of our relationships. The hard part is that in the game of Tug of War is that someone inevitably wins and someone loses. And today is a reminder that you don’t have to win every battle.

Tug of war describes the natural and evidential pull of opposing forces that exist when people or groups of people are in relationship. It’s the constant pulling of gives and takes. This sermon series we are talking about relationships - not just romantic relationships, but relationships with your friends, your children, your parents, your people, your community. This week, Pastor Mindie talks about how you can’t control how other people respond or pull in a relationship. You can only control how healthy you show up. Listen in for more.
