Do you care about what others think of you? Does it keep you from following Jesus? If you don't want to look weird, you won't follow Jesus. Hear from Keith as he teaches from Luke 6:26 and challenges you to focus on what really matters. 

This sermon is part of our 2026 sermon series, "Keep Christianity Weird."

It’s impossible to follow Jesus and be considered normal. Why? Because Jesus was weird. He didn’t abide by the cultural norms or conform to people’s expectations. And his kingdom’s values don’t jive with our culture’s values. So how will you live in response?
