Kristin and Brian dive deep into this week's passage in 1st John and discuss how John is imploring the early church (a group of house churches!) to love and to be assured that Jesus commanded us to walk in truth and righteousness.  Kristin explains this more specifically as we get into it.

John 19 covers the crucifixion, death, and burial of Jesus.  Brian and Kristin help to bring this scene to life as they discuss the impact that Jesus had on the people of his day, the religious leaders, and the world in general.  The suffering of Jesus was immense and the weight of the sins of the world should never be taken lightly by believers.  Jesus took the weight of our sins upon himself and lovingly allowed himself to experience one of the most grueling forms of torture and death.  But...Sunday's on the way!
