How Jadedness Blinds You and Simple Faith Makes You See {Melissa Spoelstra}

Shannon Popkin / Melissa Spoelstra Season 9 Episode 81

 How has your jadedness kept you from seeing clearly? And how could simple faith open your eyes to the truth?

Melissa Spoelstra and I are talking about a story in the Bible, where people were divided in how they saw Jesus after he leaned down and made mud by spitting in the dirt. The line dividing these people—and us today—will ultimately separate them into life and death, or heaven and hell-bound groups.
