In this episode of the Jesus Everyday Podcast, Ethan Callison, Josh Horne, and Andrew McPheron dive into John 7:25–36, a passage filled with tension, misunderstanding, and urgency.As Jesus teaches in the temple during the Feast of Booths, confusion swirls among the people and the religious leaders. Some think He’s the Messiah. Others think He can’t be. And Jesus’ words cut through their speculation:“You will seek Me, and you will not find Me. Where I am, you cannot come.”🎙️ In this conversation:Why John 7 is more descriptive than prescriptive—and how that shapes faithful interpretationThe importance of understanding who’s speaking in the text (the Jews, the crowd, the people, the temple officials)What Jesus means when He says “My hour has not yet come” — and how this points to His sovereign timingHow misunderstanding and misplaced expectations about the Messiah reveal the danger of prideful interpretationThe tension between urgency and patience in sharing the GospelWhy delaying obedience to Christ is spiritually dangerousWhat it means to have freedom in Christ vs. freedom to live as we pleaseHow the Feast of Booths, the Mount of Transfiguration, and Old Testament prophecies all point to Jesus as the fulfillment of God’s plan💬 The hosts also share stories from student ministry and personal discipleship about how control, comfort, and delayed surrender can keep people from truly following Jesus.Recommended Resources:- Connecting Scripture: New Testament - https://a.co/d/5nvc2LE- The Humor of Christ - https://tinyurl.com/47mhmczd- Covenant - https://tinyurl.com/4jnayx46 📖 Text: John 7:25–36🎙️ Hosts: Ethan Callison, Josh Horne, and Andrew McPheron💡 Theme: Jesus’ words remind us that there’s a window of grace — and it won’t stay open forever.
