How Much Do You Weigh

Jarod Smith, Lead Pastor

God’s glory is not just something we admire—it’s something we are meant to carry! The Bible describes His glory as weighty (kavod), powerful, and transforming. When Jesus spoke of rivers of living water flowing from within believers, He was pointing to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, filling us with God’s presence and power. Moses longed to see God’s glory, and under the new covenant, we don’t just witness it—we are being transformed by it! 2 Corinthians 3:18 tells us that we are going from glory to glory, becoming more like Him. The question is: are we living for the wait or the weight of God’s glory? Today, step onto the scale—spiritually speaking—and boldly ask, “Now show me Your glory.” In our series, "Beloved: The Gospel According to John", we journey through the life, ministry, and divine nature of Jesus Christ as revealed in the most intimate and theological of the Gospels. Through John’s firsthand account, we witness the love of God made flesh, the miracles that point to His identity, and the deep conversations that call us into a closer relationship with Christ. This series will unpack themes of light and darkness, belief and doubt, love and sacrifice—inviting us to see Jesus not just as the Savior of the world, but as the One who personally calls us His beloved. ____ Partner with New Tribe: Give | https://newtribe.church/give/ ____ Connect with New Tribe: Website | https://newtribe.church/comeexperience/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/newtribechurch Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/newtribechurch YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/newtribechurch
