Summary

You can try and convince anyone that you are passionate about Jesus, but your checkbook and calendar always prove what you're most passionate about. What you make the center of your life, will become your treasure; what you value most. We can’t always see when we are following after things that aren’t leading us closer to Jesus but God places people in our lives to help remind us of who we are and what Jesus has done for us. Join host Jerrad Lopes as he discusses making Christ our passion and explores ways to look objectively at our lives with the help of our God-given friends and communities.
