Going Deeper: Questions, Scripture, and the Life Worth Pursuing

In this episode of Going Deeper, Jody and Gaylyn unpack Jesus’ statement, “I am the resurrection and the life,” and explore why many believers struggle to actually live in the freedom Christ has already secured.The conversation addresses the difference between theological belief and lived experience, how old patterns and false identities keep us stuck, and why unresolved “grave clothes” can prevent us from walking in resurrection life.This episode is an honest and practical look at what it means to live from freedom instead of from the tomb.Have a question from a recent sermon?

In Episode 7 of Going Deeper, Jody and John tackle one of the most challenging and often uncomfortable questions in the Christian faith:Does “I am the door” mean Jesus is the only way to God—and what does that mean for people of other faiths?Drawing from John 10 and Jesus’ statement as the Door, this conversation explores both the exclusivity and inclusivity of the gospel—a truth that can feel difficult, but is central to the message of Scripture.In this episode, they discuss:Why the idea of “universal salvation” is appealing—and where it conflicts with ScriptureWhat Jesus actually meant when He said He is the door, not a doorThe difference between rejecting people and standing on truthHow the gospel is exclusive in truth, but inclusive in invitationWhy belief alone isn’t the end—alignment with God leads to abundant life todayThis episode also moves beyond theology into application, exploring why many believers don’t experience the abundant life Jesus promises—and how misalignment, sin, and misplaced priorities can quietly limit it.This is an honest, thoughtful conversation about truth, grace, and what it really means to walk through the door Jesus has opened.Have a question from a recent sermon?
