 John the Baptist’s message was urgent: “Prepare the way of the Lord; make his paths straight.” Repentance wasn’t about shame—it was about making room for the King to come near. 

In this episode, we reflect on how clearing the clutter of sin and pride isn’t punishment, but preparation. Repentance turns us not just from something, but toward Someone. And when the path is ready, Jesus comes close—bringing heaven’s voice, the Spirit’s presence, and the Father’s delight.

John’s camel hair and locust diet mirrored the prophet Elijah—pointing to his role as the forerunner of the Messiah.
