In Today's episode of Tough Texts, Scott Keith and Daniel Emery take a look at an interesting dialogue between the disciples of John the Baptist and Jesus, addressing the practice of fasting. As we explore this text, we'll contemplate the significance of Jesus referring to himself as the bridegroom, examine Jesus's response, and consider the implications of the new wine and old wineskins metaphor. How does this passage shed light on the relationship between law and gospel? What lessons can we draw from Jesus' response to the disciples of John regarding fasting? And, in what ways does this passage offer insights into the "newness" of Christ's ministry and the Christian life?
