Did Jesus come to bring peace? Absolutely! He was called the “Prince of Peace.” He taught His followers, “blessed are those who make peace.”

However, in Luke 12:49-53, Jesus says “Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division…” Then He goes on to say that He came to divide families!

In Luke 14:25-34, He says we need to HATE our moms and dads, even our wives and kids!!! Are you kidding me? What does this all mean?

If you wanna get ReJesus-ed, I hope you listen to the following sermon.

If you heard it live, or have listened to it online, I wanna invite you to respond to the following:

1) What are some of the costs of following Jesus?
2) How does making disciples cost you?
3) Tell us a story about how you or someone you’ve heard about has tried to reach nonChristians, and why their actions were controversial.

Here is Bob’s INTRO to the iFart Interview on 103.5 FM WMUZ


This is Chris’ response to Bob


Some positive responses from callers

So… it’s time to get a little discussion goin about this whole iFart thing.

In short, we entered the iFart video contest. Not because we want to win the $5000, though of course that would be nice, but because we want to effectively communicate truth.

We’re using the same strategy the Apostle Paul used when he arrived in Athens (Acts 17:16-34). He effectively engaged culture on their level first, by referring to their idols and famous poets, then he introduced the Athenians to Biblical truth.

We don’t expect to win this contest, because we are making a highly unpopular statement about Jesus’ divinity, but we do intend to inspire many.

By the way, YouTube isn’t tracking the views properly on many of our videos. We have waayyy more views on this one than it says we do.

What do you think about this attempt to reach culture?

Do you think we are reaching out effectively… without selling out?

Do you think we took it too far?

What are other people’s reactions to it? No gossip please
