The Exodus and Jubilee ft. Dr. John Bergsma – Series on Jesus and the Jubilee (Part 4)
What does true freedom look like, and how can we restore what was lost? In the Book of Exodus, the Israelites’ journey from slavery to freedom is a profound story of spiritual liberation. Led by Moses, they confront the oppressive forces of Egypt and experience God’s miraculous intervention through the plagues, ultimately leading to their escape and journey toward the Promised Land. This story is about historical events and humanity’s ongoing struggle for freedom, forgiveness, and a deeper relationship with God. The Exodus story reminds us that liberation is possible and that we can reclaim what was lost through God—freedom, family, and fullness. In this episode, with our special guest, Dr. John Bergsma, we will reflect on the importance of the Exodus story in relation to this Jubilee year.

From Me to You
Have you experienced being confined to self-centeredness? Sometimes, we can have a pretty self-focused approach to our lives where it’s all about what we need or want. But the invitation for us in this Exodus is to always move towards someone else, towards the relationship, towards God—to be totally out of ourselves and make a self-gift back to God and other people. This episode is the third part…

Holy Week and Total Gift (Lent 2024)
How do you intend to receive Jesus’ total gift for you this holy week? The fast during Lent is not to show Jesus how tough we are; it’s to show him how poor we are. It’s to be in the space of utter poverty and to trust that receptivity that He will come. And what we celebrate in this holy Triduum, this Holy Week, is Christ, giving himself to us as the bridegroom and espousing himself to us, His bride. We are celebrating Jesus’ love and total…
