Ask, Believe, Dream Bigger: The Greater Things Jesus Promised – John 14:12–14 In Episode 149 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane slow down and dive into just three powerful verses—John 14:12–14—where Jesus makes an astonishing promise about faith, prayer, and the “greater works” His followers will do. What did Jesus mean when He said, “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these”? And what do we do with His invitation to “ask me for anything in my name”? Together, Jamie and Jane explore the difference between dreaming with God and simply asking Him to bless our plans. They talk about bold prayers, surrendered dreams, expectations, and what it means to believe that God can accomplish more through our lives than we could ever manufacture on our own. Maybe we've been praying too safely. Maybe we've allowed disappointment to shrink what we're willing to ask God for. John 14 invites us to believe again, ask boldly, dream with God—and remember that ultimately, it is all for the glory of the Father. Reflection Question: Have I allowed fear, disappointment, or past unanswered prayers to make my prayers smaller—and what might God be inviting me to ask Him for again? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Introduction : If you have your bibles let me invite you to open with me to the gospel of John chapter 13. Last week we finished 15 months of a verse by verse expositional teaching through the entire book of Revelation. Since the planting of St. Rose Community Church in 2016 we have similarly worked…
Troubled World, Untroubled Heart: Trusting Jesus When Life Feels Uncertain – John 14:1–11 In Episode 147 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane step into John 14:1–11, where Jesus speaks some of His most comforting words to His disciples: “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” Jesus knows what is coming. The disciples are facing uncertainty, confusion, and fear—yet He doesn't promise them an easy road. Instead, He gives them something greater: Himself. Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it means to have an untroubled heart in a troubled world, why trusting God doesn't require understanding everything He's doing, and the hope found in Jesus' declaration: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” When the world feels uncertain, our circumstances don't have to determine the condition of our hearts. Jesus invites us to trust Him, know the Father through Him, and find peace in the promise that He is preparing the way. If your heart has felt anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what's ahead, John 14 is an invitation to remember who Jesus is—and why you can trust Him. What is troubling my heart right now—and what would change if I trusted Jesus with it instead of trying to control the outcome? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams
Jesus gave His disciples a simple but demanding command: “Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.”In John 13:34–35, Jesus defines love by pointing to Himself. His love serves, sacrifices, gets low, and costs something. And He says this kind of love will be the defining mark of His people.In this message, Pastor James challenges us to move beyond knowing about love and actually put it into practice. As our love for God grows deeper, our love for people should grow wider.Love one another. It's more than a sermon to hear. It's a life we're called to live.Support the show

Faithful Through Betrayal: Love, Loyalty, and the New Commandment – John 13:18–38 In Episode 146 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 13:18–38, where the final hours before the cross reveal both the beauty of Christ's love and the heartbreak of human failure. Jesus foretells Judas' betrayal, predicts Peter's denial, and gives His disciples a new commandment that will forever define His followers: "Love one another as I have loved you." Together, they explore how Jesus responded to betrayal with compassion, why our identity is rooted in Christ rather than our failures, and what it truly means to love others with the same grace we've received. Even in the face of rejection and abandonment, Jesus remained faithful to His mission—and He invites us to do the same. This episode is a powerful reminder that while people may disappoint us, Jesus never will. His love is stronger than betrayal, His grace is greater than our failures, and His call to love remains at the center of the Christian life. How can I reflect the love of Jesus toward someone who has hurt me, disappointed me, or failed me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Sermon preached by David Devor on August 2nd, 2026 on 1 John 3:11-18.
The Towel and the Basin: The Heart of a Servant – John 13:1–17 In Episode 145 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane begin one of the most intimate and transformative sections of the Gospel of John. In John 13:1–17, Jesus—the King of kings—kneels to wash the feet of His disciples, revealing that true greatness in God's Kingdom is found in humble service. Together, they unpack the significance of this unforgettable moment, exploring what it means to love sacrificially, lead with humility, and serve others with the heart of Christ. Peter's struggle to accept Jesus' act of service also reminds us that following Jesus means learning both to receive His grace and to extend it to others. This episode is an invitation to exchange pride for humility, status for service, and self-centered living for the example Jesus modeled on the night before the cross. As followers of Christ, we're not just called to admire His example—we're called to live it. Who is Jesus inviting me to serve with humility this week, and am I willing to lay down my pride to love like He loved?____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams
Guest Preacher Brandon Ridley continued our Love One Another with a compelling message on Colossians 3:12-15.
This week in worship, Pastor David is back with a new series on the "one another" commands of Jesus beginning with "Love One Another." Jesus didn't tell his disciples that the world would recognize them by their buildings, their programs, or even their knowledge. He said they would be known by their love. That's both a beautiful invitation and a challenging calling. As we worship this week, may God shape us into a community where Christ's love is not simply spoken about, but lived out every day.

The Bible gives us significant counsel about how to treat sin and sinners -- especially sin by brethren or former brethren. Unfortunately, it is rarely heeded, and this leads to a slew of unintended consequences. Let's see what the Bible tells us in regard to this phrase.Proverbs 17:9 KJVHe that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.1 Peter 4:7-8 KJVBut the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.James 5:19-20 KJVBrethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.Related Podcasts:— Unto Whom Much is Given— The Law of Faith— The Law and Grace— What of Works?— Missing the Mark— Faith and the Christian Experience— Obedience is the Consequence, not the Cause— Search Me, O God— Forgiveness is Our Solemn Duty— Beware Self-Righteousness— Godly Sorrow, True Repentance— Why Do We Seek Wisdom?— Having the Right PerspectiveRelated Podcasts at TrueWisdom:— Joseph and His Conflicts— Squandered Blessings— Grace, Grace, and More GraceText UsSupport the showSend questions or comments to: BibleQuestions@ASBzone.comThe Key Principles of Effective Bible Study is a resource which outlines core concepts shown in the Scriptures that will help you to better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines.

Packinghouse's Sunday evening worship service from June 14, 2026. This message focuses on Jesus' example of the two greatest commandments: loving God and loving others. Through John 1, the teacher highlights how John the Baptist devoted his life to pointing people to Jesus, while Jesus Himself modeled loving God through prayer, fasting, and seeking the Father before beginning His ministry. He then emphasizes that Jesus' ministry was centered on people, spending time with them, encouraging them, investing in them, and calling them to follow Him. The message challenges believers to move beyond superficial relationships, build genuine Christian community, and use their lives, gifts, encouragement, and time to help others grow in Christ. Ultimately, Jesus shows that loving God first enables us to truly love others well. John 1:25-51 Matt 22:37-40 Eph. 4:1-16 - Jeff Harry - Sunday, June 14, 2026

Most of us grew up with the Golden Rule: “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” It's simple, it's memorable, and it works at a basic level. But as adults, Joe Rockey has been noticing a hard truth: that rule can fail fast in real relationships—because people value different things, receive care differently, and can completely miss a gesture that would have meant the world to you.So Joe and Father Boniface Hicks press into the upgrade Jesus gives at the Last Supper: “Love one another as I have loved you.” That standard doesn't start with your preferences. It starts with Jesus—His self-emptying love, His patience, His sacrifice, and the grace that makes that kind of love possible in us. The conversation reframes Christian love as more than being “nice” or being reciprocal; it's learning to see and serve the other person as Christ sees and serves them, in a way that builds communion rather than control.Key IdeasThe Golden Rule helps children learn the basics, but adult relationships need more than “my preferences projected onto you.”Jesus sets a higher standard: love as He loves—not simply “love your neighbor as yourself.”That love isn't willpower; it's grace-driven transformation (sanctification) into Christlikeness.Real love requires mutuality: listening, learning, appropriate vulnerability, and choosing what actually serves the other.God's love is personal and present: Jesus knows us fully and loves us anyway—so we can stop “performing” and start growing.Links & References (official/source only)None explicitly referenced with clear official/source URLs in this transcript.CTA: If this helped, please leave a review or share this episode with a friend.Questions or thoughts?

This week we journey on into 1 John 3, remembering our foundational concept for this series: walking with Jesus means letting Him lead. Its a reminder to us that the goal is to be led by Him into what He has called us to do. As we walk with Him, John points out in this chapter that part of the way we need to be led is in how we love each other in this family of the Body of Christ. God wants us to be a part of His family, a loving family. The apostle John reminds us that we are called to support each other when the needs present themselves. Just as Christ laid down His life for us, we too are supposed to sacrifice and serve one another in actions and truth. Because love unknown is love unshown. Ultimately, the Apostle John reminds us in this chapter that love is a verb. - Key Verses // 3 John 1:4, 1 John 3 - For Sermon Notes, the Connect Card, and our other online resources: https://linktr.ee/Celebrationchurchlive

1 Peter 4:8 reminds believers that Christ-centered love has the power to strengthen relationships and extend grace in the face of human weakness. In this devotional, Megan J. Conner explores how selfishness and sin often create conflict in marriages, families, friendships, and church communities. From the fall of Adam and Eve in Genesis to the challenges Christians face today, Scripture reveals that broken relationships are a result of sin, but God's love provides the pathway to forgiveness, healing, and restoration. Highlights Sin and selfishness often create conflict in relationships. Adam and Eve's story reveals how disobedience impacts both human and divine relationships. God's love provides redemption where sin creates division. Jesus' sacrifice is the ultimate example of love covering a multitude of sins. Forgiveness reflects the grace God has extended to us. Christians are called to pursue peace whenever possible. Humility and mercy can help restore strained relationships. Loving others deeply requires relying on God's strength and example.

Conner Bible Reading:Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. - 1 Peter 4:8 (NIV) Relationships of all kinds can be a challenge. The Bible says God created us for community, for family, for friendships, yet often the dynamics involved in these connections can be incredibly complicated. If relationships are the design of the Lord for our lives, why do they seem so incredibly difficult to navigate? The answer… one single word… sin. At the root of all sin is selfishness. It is the desire and longing for “what I want” above all else, and often, those decisions can be harmful to those around us. They can also be harmful to our relationship with our Heavenly Father. All the way back in the Garden of Eden, we see the first choice of sin – of selfishness. “When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it,” (Genesis 3:6, NIV). Though God clearly said Adam and Eve were not to eat the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden, they felt otherwise. The couple desired to take what the Lord advised them to abstain from; they intentionally chose their own way. They chose themselves. But their choices didn’t just affect them individually; they affected their relationship with one another. As soon as their decision was revealed, the first marital argument ensued, including everyone’s favorite, “the blame game.” Their unity was negatively impacted as a result of their choices. Additionally, their relationship with the Lord was also altered by their pursuit of self. Those consequences were much more significant than a marital tiff, as they were cast out of the garden, could no longer reside within the physical presence of God, would later experience mortal death, and the legacy of sin they initiated would pass on from generation to generation. Sin and selfishness caused some major long-term ripples in this scenario, but thankfully, that is not the end of their story or ours. Love covered a multitude of sins. The Heavenly Father made provision for Adam and Eve in the form of a sacrifice to cover their sin and then gave the ultimate sacrifice of His One and Only Son to forever redeem us all from the penalty of transgression. It is because of this great love that was offered to us first, while we were yet sinners (Rom. 5:8), that we are called to love one another through the failings, disagreements, and hurt feelings. It can feel so incredibly unfair when we are called to forgive the wrongdoings of others, but how different it looks when we are the offender in need of pardon. While every situation is different and there are circumstances where forgiveness needs to be applied, but not necessarily reconciliation at that moment, God’s call to us is clear. “If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone,” (Rom. 12:18, NIV). Though our emotions can get stirred up when “iron sharpens iron” in our relationships, and there are disagreements and deep hurts, the Lord has called us to love one another. It is amazing how quickly a heated situation is diffused when love and humility are applied. May we follow in Jesus’ footsteps and extend mercy and grace to those who have wronged us - for love covers a multitude of sin. Intersecting Faith & Life: Are you struggling with disagreements or discord within your relationships? Is there a particular person or scenario that is particularly painful? Perhaps you are the offender in the situation and long for forgiveness from those you have harmed. Regardless of where you find yourself, may I encourage you, maybe even challenge you, to take a moment and reflect on how God’s unending grace and mercy have been applied to your life. Ask yourself, how has He covered a multitude of your sins? If you are willing, jot down a list of the moments when it was evident the Lord extended forgiveness to you. In light of His great love, ask the Lord to soften your heart towards those who have harmed you. I pray you follow in His footsteps and learn how to lead with love.

This week on Trailer Parked Theology, Josh and Kristi share a takeaway from a recent marriage retreat that challenged one of the most common images used to explain Christian marriage: the triangle. They explore how sacramental marriage is about far more than two individuals independently pursuing God.Together they unpack a richer vision of marriage as a living icon of Christ's love for the Church, where spouses become instruments of God's grace for one another and for the world.The conversation then shifts into 1 John 2:7-11, where John speaks of an "old" commandment that is somehow also "new." Josh and Kristi explore how Jesus fulfilled the commandment of love, transforming it from instruction into lived demonstration through His life, death, and resurrection.Episode HighlightsThe popular "marriage triangle" analogySacramental marriage as an icon of Christ and His ChurchHow spouses help lead one another to heavenThe difference between the "old" and "new" commandment in 1 JohnHow Jesus demonstrated perfect love rather than simply teaching itWhy growth often begins when God reveals our blind spotsLearning to receive correction with humility and gracePractical ways to see God's presence in everyday lifeScripture Discussed1 John 2:7-11 Support the show
