Is the narrow way supposed to scare us?In Matthew 7:13–14, Jesus says the gate is narrow, the road is hard, and only a few find it. For a lot of us, that can sound like a spiritual tightrope — one wrong step and we’re done.But is that what Jesus meant?In this episode of Me, The Onu, and One More, we look at the narrow gate and narrow way inside the larger Sermon on the Mount. We talk about why these verses can feel scary, how they connect to Jesus as the gate, what “few find it” may mean, and why the narrow way is better understood as a refining walk with Jesus than a test we are doomed to fail.We also explore:- Matthew 7:13–14 and the narrow way- The Sermon on the Mount- Jesus as the gate- Ask, seek, and knock- Picking up your cross daily- “My yoke is easy and my burden is light”- Why the path is not a tightrope- The promise that those who seek God will find himThe narrow way is challenging. But it is also full of grace.

Wanna be a friend of God?

Turns out, Jesus talked about friendship the night before he died, already calling his followers friends. But what does it mean to really “be” his friend? Jesus dove into that too. It’s probably not what you think.

Lessons I’m still learning from my Father.

Icy answers to prayer can be full of love.

Have you ever felt that you had a dream that was from God? I have, and I'd like to share that in this episode. I hope this inspires you to share one of yours if you've experienced this as well.

Have you ever felt like God told you to do something, like, right now? I’m going to discuss one of those moments in my life and how it led to some miraculous goodbyes. If this brings up memories of similar events in your own life, please take some time to share them with someone.

In this episode, I talk about the phrase “And One More,” which is a hard topic for me. What does it mean, how does it impact our lives, and do I really mean it when it comes to spiritual things? In the artwork for the episode, you can see Croga in TheDraw outside Cazador’s Coliseum, where he’s being tortured, and yet Croga remained committed to his one more. I wish I could say I was that committed.

Kind of a simple question today, though maybe, not so simple. Do you view God as stingy or generous? Is He the God of More or the God of less? I think He's the God of More. Listen to this episode and then tell me what you think.
