Luke 6
During this week (including the passage we jumped over because of P&J’s feast day) Luke has been describing how Jesus didn’t fit in with the expectations of the religious leaders around him. His way of living the religious life and following the ways of God was not strict enough in their eyes; he appeared not to be doing it properly. Jesus tried to help them see things differently by talking about it’s only the sick who need a doctor, or, not sewing a new patch on an old garment, but appeared not to get through to them. Are there times when we hold onto customs, traditions and religion rather than onto Jesus?
