On that particular day at the pool of Bethesda, Jesus was drawn to the main character of this miracle. John 5:5-7 (NLT) reads like this: “When Jesus saw him and knew he had been ill for a long time, he asked him, ‘Would you like to get well?’ ‘I can’t, sir,’ the man said, ‘for I have no one to put me into the pool when the water bubbles up.'”
What an odd question to ask a sick person. Why would Jesus pose such a question? The man was 38 years as an invalid. The duration of the condition prompted Jesus to ask, “Would you like to get well?”
Getting well means getting up, getting a job, getting on with life. Do you really want to be healed? That’s the question Jesus asked then. That’s the question Jesus asks all of us. Do you want to get well? Remember my friend, you are never alone.

Season 3, Episode 12
In this episode, Michael and Zach continue through Galatians by examining Paul’s contrast between the flesh and the Spirit in Galatians 5:16–26. Paul’s answer to the danger of abusing Christian freedom is not a return to the Law, but a life directed by the Spirit. The discussion explores the real conflict believers experience between fleshly desires and the Spirit, the warning that a life characterized by the works of the flesh is incompatible with inheriting the kingdom of God, and the familiar but often misunderstood fruit of the Spirit. Michael and Zach also examine Paul’s contrast between the works of the flesh and the fruit produced by the Spirit, his declaration that those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires, and his call to live consistently with the new life the Spirit gives. The passage ultimately shows that Christian freedom is neither legalism nor license, but Spirit-led transformation expressed in Christlike character and relationships.

What's the difference between faith and belief? Can we grow or mature in faith? How? I've learned about grace recently and have felt guilty looking outside my denomination. My kids are going to notice something different in me. Should I be honest and straightforward with them?
