Doesn’t it seem like everywhere you look someone’s upset about something? People are ranting on reels, crashing out in the comments, and cancelling close friends. But it’s not just everyone else. Your buttons get pushed too. Are you supposed to pretend it didn’t happen? People need to be held accountable. Change needs to be made. You can’t believe how many people you’ve had to correct or cut ties with. But it’s just the way it is now. What’s the alternative? Does the Way of Jesus have anything to say about how to make the world better without living in a constant state of outrage?

Jesus is perhaps the most controversial & influential person in all of human history. Most people have thoughts, opinions and questions about who He was (and is). Some even claim to know His will or be doing His work. Is that true? How can they be so sure? In the book of John, one of Jesus’ biographers records eight poetic metaphors Jesus uses to describe Himself. What do each of these things mean? And how might understanding them alter the way we see Him, the world, and even ourselves?
