Do I truly believe that Jesus has all authority over this world? If so, then why am I fretting? Why am I losing sleep? Why do I have this innate need for control?
Rachel Jones joins me on the podcast to talk about the day Jesus's authority was challenged in the synagogue. And the shocking events that unfolded next will convince you that this world's ultimate authority belongs—not to powerful people or evil forces, but to Jesus alone.
We're looking at one of the example texts Rachel used in her new book, The Quiet Time KickStarter. If reading the Bible is one of your goals for '25 check out this fabulous new resource from Rachel Jones, published by The Good Book.
