LATEST EPISODE 🔗

Send us Fan Mail A resurrection should end an argument, but John 11 shows it can also start a conspiracy. After Lazarus walks out of the tomb, many believe, and others run to report Jesus like he’s a public danger. We slow down in John 11:45–57 and follow the chain reaction from miracle to backlash…

Send us Fan Mail A loved one is dying, the message reaches Jesus, and then he does the unthinkable: he waits. That single detail forces a question most of us try to avoid when life hurts. If Jesus truly loves, why doesn’t he rush in the way we want? John 11 doesn’t dodge that tension, and neither d…
Send us Fan Mail Winter in Jerusalem, Hanukkah lights in the air, and Jesus walking through Solomon’s Colonnade while the pressure tightens. We open John 10:22-42 with the Feast of Dedication as the backdrop, then watch religious leaders surround Jesus and demand a clear claim: “If you’re the Chris…
Send us Fan Mail A shepherd calls, a flock moves, and suddenly the whole question becomes personal: do you recognize the voice of Jesus when you hear it? We step into John 10 right after the Feast of Tabernacles tension, where hostility is already boiling and the healed man born blind has put the l…
Send us Fan Mail A man is born blind, and the first instinct of Jewish tradition is to put him on trial. Who caused this, what sin brought this about, and who deserves the blame? As we move through John chapter 9, we slow down and listen to Jesus overturn a common assumption about sin and suffering…
Send us Fan Mail They accuse Jesus of being a Samaritan. They say He has a demon. And instead of backing down, He answers with a promise that reaches beyond the grave: “If anyone keeps my word, he will never see death.” We’re in John 8:48–59 on the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles, with the pre…
Send us Fan Mail Freedom is one of the most overused words in modern life, so when Jesus says, “The truth will set you free,” we slow down and ask what He actually means. Working through John 8:31–47, we track the difference between surface-level belief and real Christian discipleship, where a disc…
Send us Fan Mail A single sentence from Jesus can sound comforting until you hear it in context: “I am the light of the world.” We’re in John 8 on the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles, when giant lamps lit Jerusalem in memory of the pillar of fire that led Israel through the wilderness. Then Je…
Send us Fan Mail A crowded feast. A paused water ritual. Public prayers for rain. Then Jesus stands up in the temple and shouts an invitation that still cuts through the noise: “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.” We slow down in John 7:37-52 and let the moment be as dramatic as it re…
Send us Fan Mail A murder plot is already circulating in Jerusalem and somehow Jesus is still teaching in public. That contradiction sparks the question we lean into today: if the religious authorities think He’s a fraud, why can’t they stop Him and what does that reveal about who He is?We’re in Jo…
