John the Baptist sees Jesus and declares, “Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.” But what did he really mean—and what did he understand? In this episode, we explore John 1:29–34, unpacking the layers of sacrificial imagery, the Spirit’s descent, and how Jesus steps into Israel’s story to redeem it. With insights from scholars and reflections on spiritual awakening, we trace how this moment reveals Jesus’ identity, mission, and the Spirit-filled calling that sets Him apart

In this episode, Jeff Morton is joined by Danny and Donna Stewart to explore John 1:19–28 — a passage packed with tension, identity, and expectation. Together, they unpack the official delegation sent from Jerusalem to question John the Baptist, digging into the roles of priests and Levites, the authority of the Sanhedrin, and the political-religious dynamics of the time. They explore how John’s ministry disrupted the system, why his baptism was so provocative, and how his refusal to claim titles like Messiah, Elijah, or the Prophet speaks volumes about his role in preparing the way. It’s a rich conversation that blends biblical scholarship, historical insight, and pastoral reflection
