In this deeply personal and revelatory episode, Nazim shares an intimate encounter with the Lord that led to a fresh understanding of what it means to boast in the cross in our daily lives.
Drawing from time spent in the book of Luke, he recounts a powerful moment of stillness before the Lord where the beauty of Jesus’s torn flesh and pierced hands was revealed—not as horror, but as holy, fragrant beauty. Like a red tulip in bloom, the wounds of Christ became a sweet aroma to the Father—and an invitation to us.
This episode is a contemplative journey into why the cross is not just a historical event, but a daily place of transformation.
As Paul says to the Galatians, “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me… May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world… What counts is the new creation” (Galatians 2:20; 6:14–15).
Come listen as we explore the mystery and majesty of the cross—and why it’s worth boasting in.
