Knowing Jesus changes more than our behavior. In week four of Imperfect People, Ethan Matott explores John’s transformation from a son of thunder into an apostle of love and how confidence in Jesus’ love can change us.
Making life all about ourselves can leave us feeling more alone. In this episode, Doug, Ryan, and Ethan are joined by Olivia to talk about the pull toward independence, why real community asks something of us, and the freedom of living for something bigger than ourselves.
The cross reveals both the justice and the love of God. In week three of Imperfect People, Ryan Wekenman explores why Jesus died and what He meant by ‘It is finished.’ He invites us to move beyond managing sin and return to the cross as the source of freedom and transformation.
Having more information doesn’t mean we see everything clearly. In this episode, Doug, Ryan, and Ethan explore why belief in the devil can feel outdated, how the stories we trust shape our lives, and what it means to stay grounded in Jesus in a world full of noise.
The lies we believe can shape our lives as though they’re true. In week two of Imperfect People, Doug Wekenman explores how God’s truth challenges the shame and fear that keep us stuck, and why growing in faith means training rather than expecting ourselves to be finished.
