Title: John 5 — Witness, The Word, and Worship Series: Gospel of John | DAWN + SALT Devotionals

Episode Summary: In this episode, we step into John 5 and explore what it truly means to be a witness — not only through our words, but through the works that flow from a life transformed by Jesus. Through guided pauses and reflection moments, this devotional invites you to consider the “bed” you’ve been lying in, the Savior standing right in front of you, and the call to rise, walk, and worship.
