In Matthew 11, John the Baptist wrestles with a startling question: Is Jesus really the Messiah? From prison, John struggles to reconcile what Jesus is doing with what he expected the Messiah to do. Sam and Will explore Jesus’ compassionate response to John’s doubts, the difference between doubt and unbelief, the warnings to cities that rejected Jesus, and his powerful invitation: “Come to me… and I will give you rest.” If you enjoy the episode, please like, comment, and subscribe!
