Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Brenton and Chris discuss John 12 and the tension between worshiping Jesus for who He is versus what He can give us. They examine Judas’s self-serving motives and contrast them with Mary’s extravagant act of worship, raising the question: is Jesus our end or merely a means to one? The conversation also explores how a God-centered theology helps us endure persecution and avoid a transactional faith. Chris reflects on the danger of serving to be loved rather than out of the security of already being loved. Together, they consider what it means to offer worship that truly reflects the worth of Christ.Resources mentioned in the show:A Company of Heroes - Tim Keeseehttps://a.co/d/4mRG0V0God is the Gospel - John Piperhttps://a.co/d/8V0UADZEmail us at [email protected] you have a question that you'd like to be discussed on Further, send us an email at: [email protected] to last week's Sermon:Apple PodcastsSpotifyVisit our church website at:harmonybiblechurch.orgfurtherpodcast.com
