In this episode, Brenton and Chris discuss John 12 and the tension between worshiping Jesus for who He is versus what He can give us. They examine Judas’s self-serving motives and contrast them with Mary’s extravagant act of worship, raising the question: is Jesus our end or merely a means to one? The conversation also explores how a God-centered theology helps us endure persecution and avoid a transactional faith. Chris reflects on the danger of serving to be loved rather than out of the security of already being loved. Together, they consider what it means to offer worship that truly reflects the worth of Christ.
