Jesus had so much to share with the 12 towards the end. He had reasons why He continued to remind them of "These Things" but there was much more He didn't tell them.

Let's dig into the Word together and see what He was saying and Who He was sending!

Commitment means staying even when it's tough. For the followers of Jesus, the question we should answer is what do we do when it's hard? When we get pruned or persecuted? Explore this next red-letter section of John with Pastor Jerry Sander as we take another step closer to Jesus's journey to the cross.

How can we stay connected to Jesus? As He is the vine, we are the branches. Today Pastor Jerry unpacks John 15 and encourages us to remain and abide in Christ.

Can we know God? How do you know? How can we know?

When Jesus, a builder, promises to build everyone a mansion, and then return to get them, his listeners would have paid closer attention. And once they were leaning in, Jesus clarifies the exclusivity of who He is, and that He's the only Way to Heaven.

He is THE TRUTH, and it's absolute truth that doesn't change. We can build our lives upon the firm foundation of Jesus and His everlasting faithful truth.

Have you ever gotten lost? Been anxious? Had a troubled heart after bad news? The way to finding peace and hope is only found in Jesus.

This week the assassination of Charlie Kirk reminds us all not just that life is short, but also that the war the apostle Paul describes is absolutely real. It's not right vs left - it's right vs wrong.

Regardless of how you process a tragedy like this, we know that our hope is in heaven. May the Lord give us the courage of the first martyr Stephen, the courage of John the Baptist in front of Herod, and not value our own lives so much that we compromise the truth and the Gospel.
