2025 Episode 46, John 19-21, 1 Thessalonians 1-2

Nov 10, 2025    Ted Barrett

In this week’s episode, Ted wraps up our time in the Gospel according to John and begins Paul’s first letter to the Thessalonians.


He highlights the familiar voice of the Good Shepherd—cutting through the noise, comforting the brokenhearted, and restoring the shame-filled "failure".


Teddy points out that even on the cross, it was Jesus’ voice fulfilling His promise and surrendering His Spirit.


As he transitions to 1 Thessalonians, Teddy shows how the Shepherd’s voice and heart are reflected in those who continue Jesus’ ministry, calling new people into His Kingdom.


We hope you’re encouraged and challenged by this episode and this week’s readings.


As a companion resource, we’ve included The Bible Project’s overview video of 1 Thessalonians.
