Jesus' family says he's out of his mind. 

The scribes call Jesus the devil.

Yet Jesus forgives our sins. 

Dr. Chris Croghan discusses this week's lectionary text about Jesus' word having authority, choosing (or not) to believe in something, and blaspheming God. 

Here are a few questions Adam, Kiri, and Mason ask:

• Why do the scribes call Jesus the devil?
• How are family units always in the law?
• Does Jesus have siblings?
