Hi, I'm James McDonald and I have the audacity to say that I know what you want.

I do. I know what you really want because when you get it, there's nothing like it.

More Jesus, please. And if at all possible, the most beautiful places to encounter him coming, coming right up.

John chapter 13 through John chapter 18.

It's called the upper room discourse.

It's Jesus at his most excellent and compelling as he deals with the disciples before the cross I mean

this first one it's going to be a two-parter actually called humble yourself

we're so bad at that and he's so awesome at it we need it most he needs it least

but he once again sets the example right there before the last supper could even begin.

What if the answer to the thing that you're facing right now is just a strong personal expression

of humility? As always, Jesus Christ shows us how Open your Bibles and dig in with me.

I'm so excited about this content from John Chapter 13.

I can't tell you how fired off I am to open God's word with you to John chapter 13.

We're heading now in our study of the Gospel of John called authentic Jesus.

We're heading into what scholars call the upper room discourse.

All right.

This is absolutely as good as it gets.

This is Jesus.

Now, no more crowds, no more healings, no more feedings.

All of those people have abandoned Jesus.

Now it's just the disciples.

Upper room, these few will change the world.
