  <itunes:subtitle>In this contemplative devotional episode, Nick Oyler leads listeners through John 5:1–6 in the New Living Translation (NLT). At the pool of Bethesda, Jesus encounters a man who has been sick for thirty‑eight years and asks, “Would you like to get well?”
You’ll be invited to imagine the scene, feel the weight of long‑term suffering, and let Jesus’ question become personal. A simple “Name Your Desire” exercise helps you bring your honest longing for healing into His presence.</itunes:subtitle>
