Why Do You Want Him? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
John 6:22–29 records the morning after Jesus fed thousands, when the crowd tracked him down across the Sea of Galilee looking for more. Instead of answering their initial question, Jesus names their motive: they came for the bread, not for what the bread was pointing to. This message works through two questions Jesus presses directly on the crowd that are relevant for us today: why do you want him, and how do you think you get him? *This message was re-recorded in the church annex building after
A Glad Life with Jesus (opens the original)
Read excerpt
John 6:16–21 tells a brief story about a storm, a frightened group of disciples, and Jesus walking across the sea toward them in the dark. The passage shows three pictures: what life looks like when we're trying to make it on our own, what changes when we truly recognize who Jesus is, and why a life with him is described as glad.

Evidence for Jesus (opens the original)
Read excerpt
John 5:30–47 records Jesus responding to the religious leaders questioning him with something unexpected: not a demand for blind trust, but an invitation to examine the evidence. He points to four witnesses that testify to who he is, including the works the Father gave him to do and the Scriptures his hearers claimed to love. This week's message walks through those witnesses, looks at the historical grounds for the resurrection, and closes with a question the passage presses on everyone: where a
Life from Jesus and in Jesus (opens the original)
Read excerpt
John 5:25–29 holds together two "hours": life available now through faith in Jesus, and a future resurrection when every person will stand before him. Both shape how we live today. This message works through three questions every person is already answering, whether they know it or not: where they look for justification, where they find meaning, and what they're trusting for the future. Rob Russell preaches from John 5:25–29 as part of an ongoing series through the Gospel of John, exploring how
