Come and See: The First Disciples – John 1:29–51In this episode of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through the Gospel of John by exploring John 1:29–51, the calling of the first disciples. From John the Baptist's declaration—“Behold, the Lamb of God”—to Jesus' simple yet powerful invitation to “come and see,” this passage reveals how relationship, curiosity, and witness draw people to Christ. Together, they unpack what it means to follow Jesus before fully understanding Him, how obedience often begins with an invitation, and why discipleship is rooted in encounter, not perfection. This conversation invites listeners to reflect on their own call to follow—and who God may be inviting them to bring along.____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

God's Love is in plain sight all around us, yet it seems so obscure. We may feel orphaned from homes where we once experienced spiritual vitality. Coercion and condemnation have left us on the streets looking for a better way. In John's gospel, Jesus' first words are, “What are you looking for?” and they're followed by an invitation to “come and see.” We aren't given certainty or a system to sell. We are invited to experience a common and awe-inspiring grace as we abide with Jesus. Where do people find transforming grace at Vox? What particular ways are we invited to embody Divine grace and invite others to experience this sustaining grace with us?  On this third week of our series, Vanessa Maleare reflects on what makes invitations to grow and companion one another meaningful and transformative. Reflection Questions: Who has been a “friend to your heart”? What are you seeking/looking for? What do you need from your intimate connection with Jesus?

Richard Blackaby grew up in an “ordinary” home where his parents talked about God as if He was truly real—and where prayer wasn't a religious habit, but an ongoing relationship. In this conversation, the son of Dr. Henry Blackaby shares what it looked like to live with an expectancy that God is active and speaking, and why so many of us struggle to discern His voice—not because God is silent, but because we haven't learned to recognize Him. Along the way, Richard offers a simple but challenging reframe: we often describe our problems in terms of our limitations, when God invites us to see our circumstances through the bigger reality of who He is and what He can do.In this practical and deeply encouraging conversation, learn what it means to face a “crisis of belief,” why following Jesus often requires getting out of the boat, and how God's invitations are frequently found in everyday places—neighbors, conversations, ordinary faithfulness. And, hear the surprising story of how Experiencing God nearly never became a book. If you're a believer who wants to walk with God more attentively, this conversation will help you lift your eyes, get your heart ready, and take the next faithful step.

Epiphany Sunday

2026.01.11 Dr Kenneth Bruce So that You May Believe The Open Invitation: "Come And See" John 1:35 -51

In this message, Pastor Josh opens The Beloved Gospel with the prologue of John's Gospel—John 1:1–18—inviting us to behold who Jesus is before we consider what He did.John doesn't begin with a manger, a miracle, or a mission trip. He begins with eternity. Jesus is introduced as the Word (Logos)—God's full self-expression—through whom all things were made. Drawing from the rich Jewish and Greek background of the word Logos, this message explores how John presents Jesus as fully God and fully human, the Word made flesh, who stepped into our darkness to give light and life. This is Genesis revisited—a new beginning where God moves toward humanity, not with distance or demands, but with grace and truth embodied in Jesus.Whether you're new to faith or have followed Jesus for years, this message calls us back to the heart of the gospel:The gospel doesn't start with what Christ did, but who He is—and our response isn't rooted in what we do, but whose we are.

God's Love is in plain sight all around us, yet it seems so obscure. We may feel orphaned from homes where we once experienced spiritual vitality. Coercion and condemnation have left us on the streets looking for a better way. In John's gospel, Jesus' first words are, “What are you looking for?” and they're followed by an invitation to “come and see.” We aren't given certainty or a system to sell. We are invited to experience a common and awe-inspiring grace as we abide with Jesus. Where do people find transforming grace at Vox? What particular ways are we invited to embody Divine grace and invite others to experience this sustaining grace with us?  In this second week of our series, Eric Robinson looks at how the early believers were scattered across the Mediterranean to different cultures and how God's grace was powerfully present as they realized God was not static, but rather widening circles of mercy and belonging. Reflection Questions: What are the signs marking your journey? Wher is the last time you saw one? Who are the bicultural people in your life who might have seen the markers you missed?

Pastor Jon begins his new sermon series "Come and See" with a message called "Where He was Staying"

The Invite: Come and See — A Journey Through the Gospel of JohnSeason Three of Divine Table Talk begins with an invitation. An invitation to slow down, open the Word, and encounter Jesus in a fresh way through the Gospel of John. In our first episode, The Invite, Jamie and Jane step into the opening words of John and ask the same question Jesus asked His first followers: What are you seeking? This season isn't about rushing through Scripture—it's about pulling up a chair, coming and seeing who Jesus truly is, and letting His presence shape every part of your life. You belong at the table.____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

The opening chapter of John's Gospel says that Jesus “came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe” (1:9), and Jesus himself said he came “to seek out and save the lost” (Luke 19:10). It's a good reminder that every Christian's mission should be to introduce as many unbelievers as possible to Jesus. The overwhelming majority of non-Christians are closer to Christ than you might think, and all it takes is one real encounter with Jesus to change everything. In this series we'll explore four unique conversations that Jesus had with everyday people - a young fisherman, a middle-aged mother, a religious elder, and a woman with a sordid past - and we'll see how one interaction with Jesus can change a life forever.

Come & See | Dec 23-24 A star illuminated the way thousands of years ago – and it still shines as an invitation today. An invitation reaching into the shadows, crossing margins and tracks,leaping over every boundary we draw on this earth – reaching all the way to you and to me. The invitation to Come & See. Come and see the newborn Jesus. Come and see the way of Jesus. Come and see the kingdom of Jesus.

Jesus doesn't chase.  He doesn't demand certainty.  He isn't interested in control.  Yet so much of Christianity today seems to want what Jesus rejected.  Instead Jesus just says "Come and see."  Because he recognizes that transformation comes through invitation.  The sermon is based on John 1:35-51.

God's Love is in plain sight all around us, yet it seems so obscure. We may feel orphaned from homes where we once experienced spiritual vitality. Coercion and condemnation have left us on the streets looking for a better way.

We are invited to experience a common and awe-inspiring grace as we abide with Jesus. Where do people find transforming grace at Vox? What particular ways are we invited to embody Divine grace and invite others to experience this sustaining grace with us?  In this first week of our new series, Christopher wonders what it means for each of us to experience Vox a voice of grace in our lives and world. Reflection Questions: When have you experienced grace in a startling and deeply needed way in your life? Where in your life or in your world do you long to see grace upon grace embodied in the new year? How are you being invited to see and participate in grace this new year?

Jeff Hickman provides insight on fasting and the introduction to the study of the gospel of John.

Sometimes we feel overwhelmed as we start this particular year of studies in the Old Testament. Perhaps it is the sheer size of the book. Perhaps it is the archaic language and culture. Perhaps it seems to be so disconnected from us in time. But let us remember how the Old Testament permeates all the other scriptures.
