Dial In with Jonny Ardavanis

Share on

God's word has changed my life and my passion is that people would understand and obey it. The truth of Scripture has the ability to "renew our minds," "give us joy," and "transform us into the image of Christ." In this series I will be walking sequentially through the Gospel of John with the goal of highlighting the context, themes and applications from the text. In doing so, the hope is that we would "believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God" and love Him more. Follow along each weekday!

In this episode we will consider the question: “Why did Jesus have to die?” In asking this crucial question we inevitably reflect on the holiday known as “Good Friday.” On the surface, it should be very odd that we commemorate the torture and slaughter of Jesus Christ and call that day “good.” So what makes “Good Friday,” good? To answer that question we must ask the question initially poised. Only then, after considering the necessity of Christ's death, can we reflect on Christ's crucifixion, the greatest evil ever committed against any man, and call that day “good.”

In this episode, Jonny Ardavanis breaks down some of the themes from his forthcoming book, "Consider The Lilies: Finding Perfect Peace In The Character of God" (Zondervan) and examines some of the physical factors that contribute to our anxiety and despair. Martyn Lloyd-Jones once said in his book "Spiritual Depression" that we are "embodied beings" and "we cannot separate the physical from the spiritual because we are body, soul, and mind." It would be an extreme statement to say that the root cause of all anxiety is "always physical," but it would also be incorrect and unbiblical to not identify the reality that different factors such as loneliness, temperament, exhaustion, grief, trauma, and physical infirmity make us vulnerable and susceptible to anxiety. These different factors never excuse an ungodly worry or lack of joy, but Lloyd-Jones explained that one of the first thing the anxious and despairing is to "know themselves" and to realize that our minds are not separated from our bodies.In this episode, Jonny examines some Biblical characters, who although commended for their faithfulness, were vulnerable to anxiety because of various physical factors in their life.
