726// Proverbs 30: The Wisdom of Humility In Proverbs 30, we are challenged to reconsider the pursuit of excess, pride, and self-glorification. The chapter paints a vivid picture of insatiable desires—like a leech that never says “enough” or a heart full of pride—and warns us of the destructive consequences they bring. Instead, the antidote to this hunger for more is humility and recognizing that greatness comes not from exalting ourselves but from embracing our limits and trusting in God’s provision. Proverbs 30 also reminds us that true wisdom is often found in the seemingly small, simple things, like ants gathering food and eagles soaring high. In a culture that celebrates indulgence, this chapter invites us to pause and evaluate where we’re placing our value—on excess or on the steady faithfulness of God. As we reflect on the wisdom in these verses, let’s challenge ourselves to live with humility, trust in God’s provision, and embrace the contentment that comes from knowing He provides all we need. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ : patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆To Sponsor a child through Compassion International ➤ Compassion.com/hearingjesus Or text HEARINGJESUS to 83393 ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

688// The Day That Changed Everything: Witnessing the Impossible in Mark 16 In this powerful episode, we explore the final chapter of the Gospel of Mark, where everything changes. The story begins with Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome courageously going to anoint Jesus’ body, only to find the stone rolled away and the tomb empty. An angelic messenger announces the impossible: Jesus has risen. This moment marks a turning point not only in their lives but for all humanity. We discuss the significance of the women as the first witnesses, the cultural implications of their role, and how their fear and awe reflect the weight of the resurrection. We also explore Jesus’ post-resurrection appearances, His rebuke and commissioning of the disciples, and the signs that would accompany those who believe. Through this lens, we reflect on what it means to embrace resurrection hope, to move beyond fear, and to fulfill the Great Commission with boldness and faith. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ : patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

687// When Jesus Broke All the Barriers: What the Tearing of the Veil Means for You: Mark 15:21-47 In this episode, we dive into the powerful moments surrounding Jesus’ death and burial, unpacking themes of faithfulness, sacrifice, and courage. We look at the symbolic tearing of the temple veil and the surprising confession of the Roman centurion, who acknowledges Jesus as the Son of God. This moment marks a new era of access to God, where barriers are removed, and everyone is invited into His presence. Through the actions of the women who stood by the cross and Joseph of Arimathea, who boldly requested Jesus’ body, we see examples of loyalty and devotion, even in times of grief and danger. These stories encourage us to remain faithful in our own lives, especially when standing up for our beliefs may come at a cost. Join us as we reflect on how these moments can inspire us to take bold steps of faith, embrace the freedom Jesus’ sacrifice offers, and live with purpose beyond the need for approval from others. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ : patreon.com/HearingJesus ____________________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

686// Are You An Approval Addict? So Was Pilate. How Mark 15 Shows Us Why That is Dangerous In today’s episode, we explore Mark 15 and uncover the dangers of prioritizing people’s approval over staying true to our purpose. We see how even a powerful figure like Pilate was influenced by the pressure of the crowd, ultimately leading to devastating consequences.

684// Awake or Asleep? The Call to Stand with Christ in Mark 14: 32-52 In this episode, we are studying the powerful scene in Gethsemane, where Jesus faces intense sorrow and anguish. As the reality of His sacrifice looms closer, Jesus prays fervently, wrestling with the cup He must bear. We explore how Jesus’ humanity shines through His request to “take this cup,” yet ultimately surrenders with the words, “Not my will, but yours be done.” Alongside this, we witness the disciples’ struggle to stay awake, a reminder of our own human frailty and need for spiritual vigilance. This journey through Gethsemane reveals profound insights into obedience, surrender, and how to stay faithful in the darkest moments. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ : patreon.com/HearingJesus ____________________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

683// Have You Ever Betrayed Jesus? How He Responds in Those Moments: Mark 14:12-31 In this episode, we explore the deeply emotional and symbolic moments of Jesus’ Last Supper with His disciples, as recorded in Mark 14:12–31. This passage isn’t just a historical account but a powerful narrative that reflects foreknowledge, betrayal, and sacrificial love. We dive into the preparations for the Passover meal, the meaning behind breaking bread and sharing the cup, and the unfolding events that point to Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. We also reflect on Peter’s bold promises of loyalty and his later denial, challenging us to confront our own faithfulness when tested. Do you have a miracle story to share?
