Why People Walk Away From Jesus: The Truth About Drifting
Ever feel like there is so much more to a Sunday message than what fits in thirty minutes? Welcome to the very first episode of Frontline Unfiltered, where we take the time to dig deeper into the heart of the message and tackle the tough questions about faith, life, and everything in between.
In this debut episode, we explore why walking away from Jesus usually begins in the heart long before your feet ever move. We discuss the dangers of taking offense, the importance of godly counsel, and how to handle the hard sayings of the Bible that confront our comfort zones. We dive into the difference between being confused by scripture and being confronted by it, and why sanctification is often found in the moments that make us most uncomfortable.
We also break down a powerful analogy about the difference between being a spectator and a follower. Are you just looking at what Jesus has to offer, or have you fully surrendered to His ownership? By looking at the lives of Peter and Judas, we examine what it truly means to call Jesus Lord and why He should never be a mere supplement to our lives, but the very center of them. Whether you are navigating a difficult storm or looking for clarity in your walk, this conversation is designed to help you stay planted in the truth.
