301 The Text and The Pretext
Manage episode 425396258 series 3582108
Summary: Many people, and most Christians, know John 3:16 by heart. They know the text. But they often don’t know its context so they look for a pretext, an excuse. Today, we’re going to find out why a Lenten focus makes that totally unnecessary.
Referenced Bible verses: John 3:14-21; Numbers 21:4-9
Please note that Rev. Sally Welch appears on-screen in the first 30-or so of our videos to bring encouragement and benediction.
