S2E9-The Kingdom You Cannot Earn

This week on the Year of the Word Companion Podcast, we explore what it means to receive God’s kingdom with empty hands, trusting Jesus rather than wealth, status, achievement, or self-righteousness. Through the Bread of Life, the lost sons, the rich ruler, and blind Bartimaeus, we see Jesus as the Savior who seeks the lost, welcomes the humble, and gives His life as a ransom for many. This week’s reading includes John 6; Matthew 19:16–30; Luke 15–16; Luke 17:11–37; Luke 18; and Mark 10.
