  <itunes:subtitle>Discover the power of trusting Jesus into mystery in this transformative study of John 7:32-36. When Jesus tells the Pharisees "You will search for me but not find me. And you cannot go where I am going," they're baffled—they're looking for geographic answers when Jesus is speaking about His ascension and the nature of faith itself. This episode explores what it means to follow Jesus when you don't understand where He's leading, and why faith requires trusting a Person more than needing certainty. Learn how Jesus invites us into deeper trust by speaking in riddles, and why seeking Jesus Himself is more important than seeking answers. Through contemplative meditation and honest reflection, identify where Jesus is leading you into mystery and find the courage to follow without needing to see the whole path. This episode will transform how you understand faith and trust.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;In Episode 194, we explore John 7:32-36 and Jesus' mysterious statement that confuses the Pharisees completely. The Pharisees and leading priests are trying to arrest Jesus because they're threatened by Him and want to silence His message. So Jesus says something that baffles them: "I will be with you only a little longer. Then I will return to the one who sent me. You will search for me but not find me. And you cannot go where I am going." The Pharisees are completely confused. "Where is he planning to go?" they ask. "Is he thinking of leaving the country and going to the Jews in other lands? Maybe he will even teach the Greeks!" They're trying to solve the riddle logically, searching for a geographic answer. But they're missing the point entirely. Through guided meditation, discover what Jesus is actually saying. He's not talking about geography—He's talking about His ascension. He's saying: I'm going back to My Father. You cannot follow Me there because you don't know the Father. You don't believe in Me. You're trying to arrest Me, but you cannot stop what is coming. But there's something even deeper here that applies to all of us. Jesus is saying: "You will search for me but not find me." There will be a time when Jesus is no longer physically present. There will be a time when His followers have to follow Him by faith, not by sight. The disciples will experience this after the resurrection. Jesus will ascend to heaven. He will be gone physically. And yet He will be more present than ever—through His Spirit, through His Word, through His church. This episode explores what this means for your life: You cannot follow Jesus if you need to see Him. You cannot follow Jesus if you need to understand where He's going. Faith means trusting Him even when the destination is unclear. Faith means following Him into mystery. The Pharisees wanted certainty. They wanted to know exactly where Jesus was going so they could stop Him. But Jesus doesn't offer certainty—He offers Himself. He offers a relationship. He offers trust. Learn why Jesus speaks in riddles: He's inviting us into deeper trust, calling us to seek Him rather than answers, challenging us to follow a Person rather than a plan. Discover practical steps for identifying where Jesus is leading you into mystery and finding the courage to follow without needing to see the whole path. Find the freedom that comes from trusting Jesus more than you trust your own understanding, and experience how seeking Jesus Himself becomes more important than seeking answers or certainty.&lt;/p&gt;
