Tough love

Mark 10:17-31

  • This young man was secure in his own material goods.
  • Are we willing to lay such tough, “make or break” challenges before people? Even when it puts your relationship on the line?
  • Are you willing to let people walk away? · Allow people to make their own decisions?
  • If we compromise our standards, our standards are meaningless.

Reassurance - Leaders need to first overcome his own negative thoughts and feelings in order to help his followers avoid becoming discouraged.
