We spend our lives chasing things that promise happiness—but never truly fill us.

In John 6, Jesus challenges a crowd seeking another miracle meal and makes one of his most radical claims: “I am the bread of life.” Instead of offering temporary solutions, Jesus invites us to receive him as our daily sustenance and deepest satisfaction.

In this message, Ted Coniaris unpacks how we often pursue careers, relationships, approval, and distractions as our version of “bread,” only to discover they eventually spoil. Jesus confronts that cycle and calls us to a deeper, costly discipleship—one marked not by admiration, but by participation in his life.

This episode explores:

• Why temporary fulfillment leaves us spiritually hungry
• The difference between consuming spiritual benefits and truly following Jesus
• What it means to “feed on” Christ in everyday life
• The honest faith of Peter: “Where else would we go?”

If you’ve ever felt restless, unsatisfied, or spiritually empty despite outward success, this message is an invitation to stop running and finally receive the living Bread that satisfies forever.

Do You Want to Get Well? | John 5:1–18

What if the question Jesus asks is more important than the healing he offers?

In John 5, Jesus meets a man who has been stuck for nearly four decades. Rather than starting with a command or a miracle, Jesus begins with a question: “Do you want to get well?”

In this message, Tammy Melchien unpacks how Jesus meets us in our stuck places with compassion and authority—exposing our learned helplessness, redirecting our misplaced hopes, and inviting us to trust him as the restoring I AM.

This teaching explores:

• Why Jesus asks relational questions instead of giving quick fixes
• How we settle into patterns of “nothing can change”
• The difference between looking for healing and trusting the healer
• How Jesus restores not just bodies, but agency, dignity, and freedom

If you’ve ever felt trapped by your past, overwhelmed by your circumstances, or unsure how to move forward, this message is an invitation to hear Jesus’ question for yourself—and to take a step toward the healing he longs to give.

Living Water for Thirsty Souls | John 4

In John 4, Jesus meets a Samaritan woman at a well and offers her something far deeper than water—a life that truly satisfies.

This teaching invites us to consider:

• Where we’ve been drawing from wells that never satisfy
• How Jesus meets us with compassion, not shame
• What it means to be truly known and deeply loved
• How encountering Jesus reshapes our lives and our mission

If you’ve ever felt weary, stuck, or caught in the in-between, this message is an invitation to stop running, come into the light, and receive the living water Jesus freely gives.
