Dial In with Jonny Ardavanis Dial In - John 11:28-44 (Ep. 31)
Dial In is a devotional series with the intention of helping followers of Christ understand God’s word and love Him more. Jonny seeks to communicate the profound depth of scripture in a digestible and condensed format each weekday. The goal of the podcast is that our “minds would be renewed” as we behold who God is in His word.
In this series, Jonny is walking sequentially through the Gospel of John.
In this episode, Jonny covers John 11:28-44 which covers the story of the death of Lazarus. Jesus tells his disciples in verse 4 that this illness is “for the glory of God, so that the son might be glorified in it.” Jesus proves that he is the “resurrection and the life” by bringing Lazarus back to life.
Jesus reveals his humanity in this passage. He is not an unemotional stone, he is a “man of sorrows.” He understands our sadness, he feels our pain, he is grieved by sin and death.
