When Jesus receives news that His dear friend Lazarus is sick, He doesn't rush to his side—He waits. For anyone who has ever felt like God was late, John 11 meets us right in the middle of our grief, confusion, and waiting. Join Julissa as we walk through one of the most powerful and emotional chapters in the Gospel of John. We’ll look closely at Jesus’ bold claim, "I am the resurrection and the life," explore why Jesus wept alongside Mary and Martha, and dig into the Greek word emebrimēsato to uncover the deep, passionate fight behind His tears. Discover how Jesus steps into our deepest places of loss, proves that death never gets the final say, and calls us to walk out of our own shadowlands and into real, abundant life.
In this episode, we cover:
Why Jesus’ delay wasn't indifference, but a setup for a greater revelation.
The difference between believing in a future resurrection and trusting the One who is the Resurrection today.
The "Wait, Look at This": The intense Greek emotion behind "Jesus wept" (emebrimēsato).
Life Connection: How to trust God’s timing when your prayers feel unanswered.
Weekly Homework: A simple micro-habit to help you surrender your "dead ends" to God this week.
