Luke 8:20-21
Jesus was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside and they wish to see you. He said to them in reply, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and act on it.”

Jesus was not disrespecting his mother and family with this comment. Jesus also preached to “honor your father and mother” and that you should “love your neighbor as yourself.” Here He was making a point that all those who hear God’s call and then act on it are family…one body of Christ. It’s a team effort! Are we listening to Jesus’ words…and then acting on them? The kingdom of God is depending on it!
