We got a lot of questions about the religious leaders that Jesus condemns in Mark 12. Were all of them bad? Wasn't Jesus being a little judgmental? And who do we identify with in these stories? This week's roundtable crewmembers, Mike Erre, Tim Timmons, and Kevin Dixon, wrestle with Sunday's difficult teaching and what it all means in their own struggles.
Plus: Kevin discovers new music from a band called Maccabean Revolution; Mike admires the fresh-raked the Alabama forests; Tim shares notes from the book of Job; and Suzie stays silent as she just may be eyeing a new job.

The disciples still don’t get it despite Jesus’ repeated explanation of the Kingdom of God throughout the book of Mark. Last Sunday, we heard John and James arguing over which of them would receive the greatest place of honor next to the Messiah.

Plus: Tim gets sauced in private; Mike has no patience for Suzie’s salads; and Kevin tacos go south.

One of the most common questions from last Sunday’s teaching was just how far we have to go in living a cross-shaped life. What healthy boundaries should we set as we follow Jesus?

They also consider questions about whether wealth and public platforms are compatible with following Jesus.
Plus: Tim’s in another world, Suzie’s appealing, life’s a beach for Kevin and Mike’s on a California roll.
