Shaped by the Truth We Resist (Derik Fuller) | Shaped By Jesus

About this episode
Derik Fuller discusses the challenging truths about Jesus' suffering and the disciples' misunderstanding of His mission.
While the crowds marvel at His power, Jesus once again predicts His coming suffering and death. The disciples hear the words but fail to grasp their meaning. The idea of a suffering Messiah clashes with everything they expect about God’s plan. Yet this difficult truth lies at the center of Jesus’ mission. Sometimes the truths that shape us most deeply are the ones we initially resist or misunderstand.
