The Sin Beneath Our Sins

Luke 12:13-15 Turn in your Bibles to Luke chapter 12, and we are continuing to learn from our Lord’s teaching and today, we are going to get a brief glimpse into, we can call this, “Jesus’ Community Counseling Ministry,” as a man comes to Jesus to ask for help with a particular problem.  You may remember that while Jesus had been teaching publicly, he was directing his instruction to his disciples.  Even though there are thousands pressing in, uh, trampling…
