What if Jesus showed up in the year 2026 instead of A.D. 27 and simply said, “Follow Me”?

Can you imagine being one of those twelve? What type of individuals would Jesus choose? It's not like today's common job descriptions are farmers, tax collectors, or fishermen. Would he choose a liberal or a conservative? Someone privileged or another who has been overlooked? someone well informed and another naive or ignorant?

What places would he choose from? Would he have walked the halls of college campuses and called students, or showed up in the mechanic shop and called a machinist? Would he be limited to just choosing the well, or would he consider the broken? What about the unconverted?

What are some questions a modern disciple would ask after hearing "follow me"? Jesus, does your program consider proper boundaries to prevent things like spiritual burnout? Will we have enough time for my self-care routine? I can follow you, Jesus, but I see a nationalist already in your ranks. How will we work together?

Here at God Ink, our curiosity often gets the best of us. And in this season, we can’t help but notice the tension as Jesus continued to call His disciples, these were men and women, who were from all walks of life, all with different stories, yet all converged under the influence of this brilliant leader who was so much more than just that. Like you, we often wondered how this all came together.

Join us May 25th, as we piece together a biographical sketch of each individual chosen by Jesus and listen as we unpack the special role Christ assigned each one as He worked to build up Heaven’s Kingdom.

In this episode, we dive into one of Israel’s darkest moments: the golden calf rebellion. Aaron caves, the people break loose, and shame floods the camp. We trace how idolatry doesn’t just distort worship—it drives a wedge between us and the God who rescued us.

In this episode, we examine the divine injunction at Sinai in which God commands Israel to establish a physical boundary around the mountain of His presence. This narrative raises important theological questions regarding the nature of divine transcendence and accommodation.

Does God possess intrinsic limitations, or does He voluntarily self-limit in order to engage a humanity estranged from its original imago Dei? By tracing this tension through Scripture, we consider how divine holiness interfaces with human fallenness, and what this reveals about the character of God’s redemptive initiative.

In this thought-provoking episode, Garhett and Jermaine sit down with attorney and Bible student Amy Ratsara to explore the dramatic moment when God gave Israel its national identity at Mt. Sinai. Together, they reflect on what it meant for a nation to be founded not on conquest or politics, but on covenant. The conversation moves between the ancient world and modern implications, including a fascinating comparison with America's own founding ideals. This episode unpacks the Ten Commandments not just as moral code, but as a radical framework for justice, freedom, and identity. Etched not in stone monuments, but in the heart of a people.

This week on the God Ink podcast, Israel Ramos joins us to unpack a moment that could have easily spiraled into conflict. In Exodus 18, Moses’ leadership is critiqued, his reaction tested, and his overloaded work schedule begins to harm the people he’s called to serve. What happens next reveals a God-given strategy for healthier leadership, and a timely lesson for us today."

When hunger strikes, so does forgetfulness. In this episode, Moses reflects on a restless people who quickly romanticized slavery when their stomachs began to growl. From seas splitting to bitter water turning sweet, God had never failed them — yet trust remained scarce in the wilderness called "Sin."

As God promises to rain bread from heaven, Moses realizes this was never just about food; it was about hearts. About dependence. About learning to trust one handful at a time.

Freedom came crashing in like a tidal wave — chains broken, songs rising, the Red Sea roaring in triumph behind them. But just three days into the wilderness of Shur, the songs faded into hoarse whispers of thirst.

In this episode, we journey with Israel as they stagger from victory into desperation. We watch once-strong men crumble into restless boys, and brave women weep like lost children at the bitter waters of Marah. Their empty mouths reveal a deeper emptiness — a fragile, flickering faith that vanishes under the desert sun.

As we hear the shouts, feel the stampede, and taste the bitter disappointment, we discover a sobering truth: it doesn’t take long for adults to become children again when their needs go unmet.

Join us as we explore what happens when freedom meets scarcity, and when the God who parts seas teaches His people to trust — one dry mouth, one bitter sip at a time.
