Luke 8:19-21

19 His mother and brothers showed up but couldn't get through to him because of the crowd.
20 He was given the message, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside wanting to see you."
21 He replied, "My mother and brothers are the ones who hear and do God's Word. Obedience is thicker than blood."
