Knowing Jesus and the Spirit
In John 16, Jesus tells His disciples they will die after His departure, but He also encourages them that their sorrow will turn to joy. We discover why it is to our advantage that Jesus leaves and sends the Holy Spirit. Some Christians seem to ignore the Holy Spirit. Some Christians emphasize the Holy Spirit in a way that is disconnected from the Bible and from the ministry of Jesus. We learn how to think about the Holy Spirit and why we should be encouraged by His ministry among us.

    Knowing Jesus as Restorer
     
    In John 21, Jesus addresses Peter’s denial and He restores Peter. We learn that we are all in need of restoration and God delights in restoring us to use us. We also learn this restoration is often difficult and even painful. However, we are encouraged because God’s restoration is worth it!

    Knowing Jesus as Resurrected
    In John 20, we have four reactions to Jesus’ resurrection: unexpecting, superficial belief, fear, and skepticism. We see these same four reactions to Jesus’ resurrection today. We also discover how these reactions get transformed into strong belief after Jesus appears to His followers. We are encouraged as we learn that we have strong reasons to believe in the resurrection and why this belief changes us.
