The question of “what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” is one that is being both considered and answered, but how often do we look at the way Jesus Himself responds to this question?

This winter we will look at the account of the Rich Young Ruler who ran enthusiastically to Jesus, only to walk away sorrowfully when Jesus tells him he must forsake everything else and requires the man’s complete affection and allegiance. Jesus’ response to the Rich Young Ruler is straight-forward and shocking, but the truth of His message is essential for everyone to understand and obey.
