    John Chapter 11

    When Jesus receives news that His dear friend Lazarus is sick, He doesn't rush to his side—He waits. For anyone who has ever felt like God was late, John 11 meets us right in the middle of our grief, confusion, and waiting. Join Julissa as we walk through one of the most powerful and emotional chapters in the Gospel of John. We’ll look closely at Jesus’ bold claim, "I am the resurrection and the life," explore why Jesus wept alongside Mary and Martha, and dig into the Greek word emebrimēsato to uncover the deep, passionate fight behind His tears. Discover how Jesus steps into our deepest places of loss, proves that death never gets the final say, and calls us to walk out of our own shadowlands and into real, abundant life. In this episode, we cover: Why Jesus’ delay wasn't indifference, but a setup for a greater revelation. The difference between believing in a future resurrection and trusting the One who is the Resurrection today. The "Wait, Look at This": The intense Greek emotion behind "Jesus wept" (emebrimēsato). Life Connection: How to trust God’s timing when your prayers feel unanswered. Weekly Homework: A simple micro-habit to help you surrender your "dead ends" to God this week. 📖 Key Bible Verses Mentioned: John 11 💡 Stay Connected!

    John Chapter 10

    In a world full of noise, competing opinions, and distraction, how do we distinguish the voice of God from everything else? In this episode, Julissa dives into John 10—one of the most comforting and powerful chapters in all of Scripture.

Whether you're feeling scattered, facing spiritual opposition, or struggling to discern direction in your life, this episode will remind you of the safety, abundance, and eternal security found only in listening to the Good Shepherd’s voice. 📖 Key Bible Verses Mentioned: John 10:1–5 (The Shepherd Calls His Own) John 10:7–10 (I Am the Door & Abundant Life) John 10:11–18 (The Good Shepherd Lays Down His Life) John 10:27–30 (My Sheep Hear My Voice & Unshakeable Security) 💡 Stay Connected!

    Don't Stop Showing Up

    Life gets busy, distance creeps in, and coming into God's presence can easily drop off the priority list. In the series finale of Rooted Bible Study, Julissa anchors into Psalm 122:1, Matthew 11:28, and Hebrews 10:22 to remind us that God’s door is always open. Learn why simply showing up, weary, burdened, and as you are—is where real rest and renewal begin. What You'll Take Away: Scripture Focus: Psalm 122:1, Matthew 11:28, and Hebrews 10:22. Core Truth: You don't have to get yourself together before coming to Jesus; showing up in His presence is what brings rest. Micro-Habit: Commit to showing up tomorrow, whether through church, opening your Bible before your phone, or spending five quiet minutes with God. Closing: A 3-sentence prayer thanking God for open access to His presence and asking for the discipline to keep drawing near. 📖 Key Bible Verses Mentioned: Psalm 122:1, Matthew 11:28, and Hebrews 10:22. 💡 Stay Connected!
