During today's conversation on back porch theology, we're going to talk about the genesis

of relational evangelism and how Jesus modeled relational intimacy.

Our Savior wasn't some aloof, pensive, carpenter, apprentice who always wore contemplative

expression and spoken, hushed tones.

Instead, he was a supernatural sort of rock star when it came to relating with people

from wildly diverse backgrounds.

We're also going to talk about the deep comfort and transformational security we can draw

from a tiny little adverb in John's Gospel account that's all too often overlooked.

So please grab a cup of coffee in your Bible unless you're driving or peeling some string

cheese, of course, and come hang out on the porch with us.

We are so excited that y'all have chosen to join us for another episode of porch sitting

with Ali and I here on the proverbial back porch of back porch theology.

You know, Ali, I never knew when we first started this podcast, which has been all of

six months ago, how intimate it would feel, some of the, some of the letters we've been

getting, the notes we've been getting, the messages on social media, I just, I had

not been a huge podcast yet until you had listened to some, but I realize the reason it

feels intimate is people are inviting us into their workouts, into them, you know, making

dinner in the kitchen into long drives or there's one woman who sends us notes and she listens

to back porch theology when she's driving to take her son, a very young son to chemo and y'all,

we just want to tell you we, we still are kind of pinching ourselves, we can't believe

God allows us to do this, you know, we keep saying we're inviting you to come sit on the porch
