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.

The Tears of God
You see a different side of someone when you see what makes him or her cry. Seeing a person weep, and knowing why — the thing he or she cares about so deeply as to be moved to tears — is a deep insight. Lazarus. Jerusalem. Sin. Jesus weeps at these. That tells us something important, for a man who weeps…

Surrender the Script
There’s this simplicity that when we encounter Jesus, our lives become different. We may not understand it, and it might not look the same for each of us, but our lives become different. Just like the story of the man born blind, before he met Jesus and hoped in Him, he was living in darkness, unable to see. After his encounter, there had been healing, and he…

Life and Mystery
Would you agree that life is a journey or a pilgrimage? The journey to say yes to what God wants for our life is not just this thing that happens like a contract; we say, “Yes,” it’s a journey. The holiness, the sanctification, the healing, it takes time. The pilgrimage of life is challenging; blindness, poverty, and suffering are often a part of it, but Jesus is with us in this pilgrimage, and he desires to not…
