What Happens When Jesus Shows Up? (Audio)

Summary

In this sermon on John 12:1-11, Pastor Levi Skipper explores the reactions to Jesus' arrival at a meal in Bethany, focusing on how encountering Christ motivates believers to serve, worship, and respond with genuine love. The passage highlights key characters like Mary, who anoints Jesus with expensive perfume, Martha, who serves, and Judas, who criticizes the act, while also referencing the broader context of Passover and Jesus' impending crucifixion. The practical takeaway is that when Jesus shows up in our lives, we should be transformed, motivated to serve Him sacrificially, and respond with authentic worship and devotion rather than cynicism or self-interest.
