Seeing The Glorified Jesus

Seeing The Glorified Jesus | Revelation 1: 9–20 | Joey Zorina

What comes to your mind when you think about Jesus? As we saw last week, John had begun his first sentence with “the revelation of Jesus Christ” (v. 1). The whole book is a prophecy of unfolding events and what Jesus is saying to churches facing persecution, compromise and false teaching. Yet, Jesus is not only the revealer of the truths, but also the one being revealed as John said in vv. 4–8. And this grand vision of Jesus had come to John—not in a time of comfort and ease but in a time of great suffering. So, in our passage, we’ll look at: a) The patient endurance in our sufferings. b) The portrait of our warrior-King. c) The presence of Jesus in our fears.

The King on The Cross

The Servant King | Gospel of Mark | ch. 15: 29- 39 | Pastor Joey Zorina

People often ask: Why does a good God allow so much suffering and evil? But rarely do people ask: Why did God allow Jesus to suffer the horrible pain of crucifixion? Picking up from vv. 29- 39, follow along as we look at three reasons why Jesus suffered on the cross:- a) Jesus suffered to save others, not Himself. b) Jesus suffered the eternal separation we deserved. c) Jesus suffered to bring us into God’s presence.

Joy in Sacrificial Servanthood

Philippians 2: 19-30 | Joy in Sacrificial Servanthood | Pastor Joey Zorina

In this episode, we learn about Epaphroditus whose near death experience in the cause of Christ points us to the One who became obedient to the point of death on the cross.

Joy in Humility and Unity

Philippians 2: 1-11 | Joy in Humility and Unity | Pastor Joey Zorina

When you think of a truly humble person what comes to your mind? In this episode, we look into a poetic passage in Philippians 2: 1-11 where we encounter the most humble person in the entire universe.
