GB News Daily Reflection — Thursday 2nd July 2026
In today's GB News Daily Reflection, we remember that following Jesus is an invitation on offer to every human being, whoever you are, and it is the best kind of life available to us.There's one thing to be a fan of Jesus and one of the crowd, and a totally different thing to become a follower and a friend. Followers and friends are those who listen to Jesus's words and put them into practice. In my life, I've taken a journey from being really interested in Jesus, being a fan, to becoming a follower and friend. What began as an intellectual decision based on history and the concrete facts of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ over time became a spiritual journey, a relationship as the love of God awakened in my heart. And I truly believe that following Jesus is an invitation on offer to every human being, whoever you are, and it is the best kind of life available to us.WATCH ABOVE.
