Apr 29, 2026 · 37:23
God sent Jesus into the world to say the things he said and do the things he did — and it got him killed. Now Jesus is sending us into the world, and we should probably expect at…

Can you imagine a perfect human being? You may say, “Sure.” But perfection would necessarily be surprising to us because we’re not perfect and we’ve actually never seen…
Mar 16, 2026 · 40:51
I’ve heard people say, “Oh, I wish I had his faith, or her faith,” as if faith is a talent. And I do think there’s a kind of faith that’s a temperament—people who are more…
Mar 13, 2026 · 40:12
Jesus’ first sign was not feeding the poor. It wasn’t healing the sick or raising the dead. It was keeping a party going. In the book of John, there’s a series of miracles that…
Mar 11, 2026 · 42:15
People come up to John the Baptist and say, “What is your identity? What is your self-understanding?” That has a very contemporary ring to it. And it has quite a bit to do with…
Mar 9, 2026 · 37:09
You can’t really understand the real Jesus if you only look at his birth and his death. You must also look at his words and his deeds during his life. To study the words and…
