Episode 14: Jesus Wept

In this episode, I look at one of the shortest verses in the Bible, John 11:35, “Jesus wept.” But why did he weep, and what can such a statement say to us today?

Episode 13: Be Still

- - - - - - - - - - -

In this episode, I look at the phrase “Be still, and know that I am God” from Psalm 46:10 and consider this familiar verse in its context. Should we understand this verse to be a word of peace or a word of judgment?.
