Who Is Jesus—and How Can I Know I’m His?

Send us a text

What does it really mean that Jesus is the Word who was with God and is God? How can we reconcile our theological understanding with persistent feelings of spiritual darkness? And perhaps most importantly, how can we know if our faith is genuine?

These questions aren't just intellectual exercises—they touch the very heart of what it means to follow Christ. In this special Q&A episode, Pastor Harry Behrens is joined by Pastor Donnie Garrison and youth leader Brock Bridges to tackle the real, honest questions that believers struggle with daily.

Together, they explore the mystery of Christ's divinity, acknowledging that the concept of the Trinity inherently challenges human understanding. As they discuss, this very complexity testifies to God's transcendence—if we could fully comprehend God, wouldn't that suggest a human-made deity rather than the Creator of all things?

For those feeling stuck despite believing in Jesus as the light and life, the conversation offers a powerful perspective: this struggle doesn't mean you're far from God—it often means He's inviting you deeper. The light of Jesus isn't an instant switch but more like a steady dawn that gradually illuminates your life as you continue bringing your real struggles to Him.

The discussion culminates in practical wisdom about assurance of salvation. Beyond emotional experiences, true transformation reveals itself when sin becomes uncomfortable, when you find yourself fighting against darkness rather than comfortable living in it. As Jesus said, genuine faith involves denying yourself and taking up your cross daily—not just acknowledging Christ's existence but submitting to His lordship.

If you've been wrestling with questions about your faith, this conversation offers both theological depth and practical guidance to help you grow in your relationship with Christ. Your doubts don't disqualify you—they might be the very doorway to deeper faith.
