A man asks Jesus, &quot;Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?&quot;In this week&apos;s podcast episode, what Jesus teaches this man, and what Sarah teaches all of us in this conversation, is how we all have broken the commandments even when we don&apos;t think we have. Then, we break down the famous verse and just what it means for those of us who haven&apos;t sold everything we own: It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God. Here are the questions Kiri, Adam and Mason ask:<ul><li>Is it obvious that we&apos;re all sinners?</li><li>Why can&apos;t we keep the commandments?</li><li>How are Christians persecuted?</li></ul>Interested in sponsoring an episode of Scripture First?

Christians Are Free | Mark 10:35-45 with Sarah Stenson & Dr. Chris Croghan

Three millennials sit down with Lutheran theologians to understand how Scripture is working in our lives. God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, sin, faith, forgiveness, Luther, and more are on the table as Mason Van Essen, Kiri Haugen, and Adam Guthmiller discuss each week's upcoming lectionary Bible passage with Luther House of Study's theologians to hear the context in and around Scripture before it's preached in church.
