07. JESUS BRIDGES THE GAP

The Collision Podcast

In this episode, the team walks through John 3:16–17 with clarity and depth, examining how Jesus bridges the gap between a holy God and a broken world. They explore why his full humanity and divinity both matter—not just theologically, but practically—in how we understand salvation, teach the gospel, and disciple others.
More than just a rescue from sin, this conversation reframes the gospel as an invitation into restored relationship and holistic renewal. Whether you’re preaching, leading a small group, or equipping students, this episode offers fresh language, honest reflection, and theological grounding to help you communicate the gospel with both conviction and compassion.
This episode dives deep but still hits with clarity and hope. Spoiler: everything points back to love.
