John 11v1-16
In every situation, we are confronted with two conflicting narrative scripts: God’s declaration of life and our assumption of death. This week, we delve into John 11:1-16, where Jesus' response to Lazarus's illness seems baffling to both His disciples and us. Though His friend is gravely ill, Jesus delays, setting the stage to reveal a profound disconnect between the reality He proclaims and the one His followers see.
Join us as we explore the divine script – where hope is given upfront, and where Jesus's words point to God's glory, unconquerable life, and an invitation to true belief. We'll also examine the human script, characterised by fear, past trauma, and a misguided loyalty that embraces defeat. The central question stands: Whose report will you believe?
