When Truth Confronts Pride: John 7:45-52: Daily Devotional, Daily Bible Study
In this episode, Rachael walks listeners through John chapter seven, focusing on how Jesus models truth, courage, and spiritual discernment in a world full of noise and opposition. She highlights the tension Jesus faced when people questioned His authority, and she draws attention to Nicodemus: one of the few voices willing to slow down, think clearly, and seek truth instead of reacting from pride or fear. Rachael unpacks the danger of making quick judgments, the way God often chooses the overlooked, and the difference between human authority and God’s authority. This episode invites you to examine your assumptions, notice where pride might be getting in the way, and open your heart to the possibility that God wants to show you more than you’ve experienced so far.
