True Joy is not Found in Family and Traditions

We look at this thing called 'family'. For the believer this is redefined from the way the world understands it. Family is defined by Jesus as those that hear the word of God and do what it says (Lk 8:19-21). So when we become a disciple of Christ we have to count the cost and be willing to rid ourselves of everything, including our families, in order to follow him.
