So much of life's complexity does not exist in the answer to "what"...what do we want, what do we want to avoid, what are we after? "What" is what religion is all about. But Jesus and His Way are different. He insists the secret to life is not in "what"—it is in "how." How do we get what we want? How do we avoid what entraps us? How do we find what we're after?

This past Sunday, we considered one of Jesus's stories that lays out the HOW of life.
