The Ministry of Imagination (John 11:45-52)

from Rebuilding Faith · host Jeremy Jernigan

Jesus raises a man from the dead—and the response is a committee meeting. In Episode 50 of Rebuilding Faith, we step into John 11:45–52, where resurrection doesn’t lead to celebration but to panic, because a clear view of Jesus threatens those in control. This episode explores why religion so often chooses preservation over faithfulness, how imagination becomes dangerous when power is at stake, and why the cross is never good news for people who like things the way they are.  Watch the episode on video: https://youtu.be/eqWFSDiu09A  ----------------- Join the online community and get access to exclusive content and experiences: https://www.jeremyjernigan.com/patron-sign-ups Trying to make sense of faith?
