Episode Synopsis
Jesus’ Teachings: What We Got Wrong Episode 2 – Born Again Doesn't Mean Start Over🔍 Episode SummaryIn this episode, James unpacks one of the most familiar — and misunderstood — phrases in Christianity: born again. For many of us, it meant endless altar calls, rededications, and the fear of hell if we didn’t get it right. But when Jesus first used the phrase, he wasn’t talking about rituals, emotions, or membership. He was pointing to something already inside us.You’ll hear the story of Jesus’ late-night talk with Nicodemus, discover why “born of Spirit” has nothing to do with pressure or performance, and explore what it means to wake up to who you already are — whether in church, by a lake, or even playing with your golden retriever.✨ What You’ll LearnWhy “born again” was never about fear, formulas, or altar callsWhat Jesus actually meant when he said, “Be born of Spirit”Why rebirth isn’t becoming someone else — it’s uncovering what’s always been in youHow spiritual awakening can happen anywhere, not just in churchWhy being “born again” isn’t a one-time event, but something you live again and again🧠 Key Quotes “Being born again isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about letting out what’s always been in you.”“When you were born the first time, you didn’t change your behavior from womb to air — you just came alive.”“You don’t need religion to wake up — the spark of life is already in you.”📿 Spiritual Practice to Try Ask yourself: “What would waking up look like for me right now?” Then spend one hour living as if love, not fear, is your truest self.If You are Moved to Do So, Support our Work:
