  Aug 18, 202618 minS1

  Join us for Part 3 of this powerful three‑part series on the story of Lazarus in John 11. In this final Season 1 episode, we look at what happens after Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead — the divided crowd, the rising tension, the high priest’s unintended prophecy, and the moment when one man will die for the people, setting the path straight toward the cross. Jeff also shares what’s coming in Season 2 and the new direction for Engage the Scripture heading forward.

  Ep. 47 Jn 11:28-44 Lazarus Part 2: “Come Out!” – Jesus Confronts Death Itself

  Aug 12, 202623 minS1

  In Part 2 of our three-part series on Lazarus, Jesus meets Mary in her deep grief, weeps with those who mourn, and stands before the tomb. What follows is one of the most powerful moments in the Gospels — Jesus declares, “I am the resurrection and the life,” confronts death itself, and calls Lazarus out of the grave with a loud voice. We explore Jesus’ tears, the meaning behind His righteous anger at death, the miracle of Lazarus walking out still wrapped in grave clothes, and what this all reveals about the new life and freedom Jesus offers us right now.

  Ep. 46 John 11:1-27 Lazarus part 1 When Jesus Waits – The Glory of God in Suffering

  Aug 5, 202625 minS1

  Description: Join us for Part 1 of this powerful three-part series on the story of Lazarus in John 11. When a beloved friend falls deathly ill, Jesus doesn’t rush to help—He waits with purpose. What looks like delay becomes the stage for God’s glory to be revealed. We walk through Martha’s strong faith and her expectation of the future resurrection (a common hope in Second Temple Judaism), Jesus’ bold claim “I am the resurrection and the life,” and Thomas’s courageous but fearful response: “Let us also go, that we may die with him.” This episode is more than a miracle story — it’s a profound look at how Jesus steps into our pain and reveals who He really is.

  Ep. 45 John 10: 22-42 I and the Father Are One” — The Light of the World at Hanukkah

  Jul 21, 202627 minS1

  It’s winter in Jerusalem during the Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah). Jesus stands in Solomon’s Colonnade and makes one of the clearest declarations of His deity in the entire Gospel: “I and the Father are one.” The religious leaders immediately understand what He is claiming and pick up stones to kill Him. Jesus responds by appealing to Scripture—quoting Psalm 82:6 (“I said, you are gods”)—to defend His unique Sonship and divine mission. Then He withdraws across the Jordan, where many believe in Him. This powerful episode explores Jesus as the true Temple, the Good Shepherd, and the Light of the World who fulfills the very feast they were celebrating.

  Episode #44

  Ep. 44 John 10 1-21 “The Voice of the Shepherd — The Good Shepherd”

  Jul 14, 202624 minS1

  In Episode 44 we step into the first half of John 10 and meet Jesus as the Good Shepherd. Right after healing the man born blind, Jesus speaks directly to the Pharisees, revealing who He really is—the Door of the sheep and the Good Shepherd who calls His own by name, lays down His life for them, and gives abundant life. We’ll see the difference between the true Shepherd and the thieves and hired hands, and hear the exciting announcement of one flock made up of both Jew and Gentile under one Shepherd. Real talk about real faith from East Tennessee.
