Deeper Christian Podcast • Episode 63

In this third and final part of my sermon examining the Christophany of the Holy Land, we discuss the death of Christ and see how God wove a beautiful Christophany throughout the entirety of Scripture, ultimately pointing to the death of Jesus on the cross.

This episode is breathtaking in realizing the layers of detail in the Bible pointing to the cross, the day and time it happened, how festivals celebrated for a thousand plus years were all about THE Passover Lamb, and how even pagan cultural ceremonies were used to declare that Jesus is the Son of God, and came to save humanity from sin.

A Christophany is a picture of Jesus seen throughout the Bible specifically the Old Testament.

And even the land itself, God's Promise Land, points to Jesus Christ and reveals our desperation and our need for dependency upon Him.

In this second episode looking at the Christophany from the Holy Land, we walk through the geography of Israel and discuss why God chose such a dry and weary land as His Promise Land.

Deeper Christian Podcast • Episode 61

A Christophany is a picture of Jesus seen throughout the Bible specifically the Old Testament.

Though we quickly understand that prophecy in the Bible points to Jesus, so too do people, events, geography all types and shadows pointing to the fulfillment and fullness in Christ Jesus.

In this first part of a three-part series, we listen to one of my recent sermons and discover the delight of finding Jesus throughout all of God's Word.

This first section focuses on Jesus being our Rock and our Creator.

Deeper Christian Podcast • Episode 60

The story of Martha and Mary in Scripture give a great contrast between distraction and devotion.

But the question remains how devoted, how obsessed, how in love should we be with Jesus?

The answer is: extravagantly.

In this episode, we discuss that Christianity is not a half-hearted pursuit of God, it is an all-out, completely obsessed, fully given over to seeking, loving, knowing, and being devoted to Him.

Join Nathan Johnson as we examine the lives of Martha and Mary to see the effects of a life extravagantly devoted to Jesus Christ.

Deeper Christian Podcast • Episode 59

Far too many Christians are distracted with "good things" and thereby sacrificing intimacy and devotion to Jesus.

In this episode, we examine the story of Martha and Mary in Luke 10 and how their relationship to Jesus gives us a picture of how we are to relate to Jesus either completely devoted to Him and growing in intimacy or becoming distracted with anything else.

As Christians, we must not think that doing things FOR God is the same as having intimacy WITH Him.
