This class follows Jesus’s warning against using religion to build a reputation. The instruction he gives is straightforward: Be careful not to do your righteousness before people to be seen by them. The temptation to build a reputation – to seek the “praise that comes from people” – is a dangerous detour that does not lead to the Kingdom of God.
(Co-teacher Kevin Looper was leading a Spiritual Disciplines Retreat this weekend but will be back next week’s class.)
