Pastor Talk

John 13:31-35

February 5, 2025

In this episode, we dive into John 13, where Jesus gives his disciples a new commandment—one that will define them in the world: "Love one another as I have loved you." But what does that love look like? And why does Jesus say this after speaking about his own glorification? We explore how John's

John 13:21-30

February 4, 2025

In this episode, we explore John’s unique telling of the betrayal of Jesus by Judas. Unlike the other Gospels, John doesn’t emphasize the Last Supper in the same way, but instead focuses on the moment of betrayal. Why is Jesus troubled in spirit? What does the act of giving bread to Judas signify?

John 13:12-20

January 29, 2025

In this study, we explore Jesus' powerful act of washing His disciples' feet in John 13 and the radical call to humility it represents. Jesus flips the world’s idea of leadership and power on its head, showing that true greatness comes through serving others. This act is more than symbolic—it’s a

John 13:1-11

January 28, 2025

In today’s episode, we explore John 13, where Jesus shocks his disciples by washing their feet, a task reserved for the lowest servant. This unexpected act highlights humility, love, and service at the core of Jesus’ ministry. Peter’s reaction—both refusal and overcorrection—reflects our own

John 12:37-50

January 27, 2025

In this study of John 12, we explore the perplexing reality that even when Jesus performed miracles, not everyone believed. The conversation delves into the mysterious interplay of God's providence and human response, examining why some hearts are open to the light of Christ while others are

John 12:20-36

January 23, 2025

In this episode, we explore a fascinating moment in John 12 where some Greeks come seeking Jesus, marking a pivotal shift in the Gospel narrative. This encounter highlights the expanding reach of Jesus’s ministry beyond the Jewish people, foreshadowing the global scope of the gospel. Jesus responds

John 12:12-19

January 22, 2025

In this study, we explore John’s unique telling of the triumphal entry in chapter 12. Unlike other Gospels, John positions this pivotal moment early, emphasizing Jesus’ move to Jerusalem as a central part of the story. We unpack the significance of Jesus riding a donkey as a humble yet powerful

John 12:1-11

January 21, 2025

In this episode, we explore John 12:1-11, where Mary’s act of extravagant worship stands in stark contrast to Judas’s selfishness. Mary’s anointing of Jesus with costly perfume reveals her deep devotion, gratitude, and recognition of Jesus’s mission, while Judas’s criticism exposes his greed and
