Eugene Peterson, in his contemplative style, underscores the relational aspect of an encounter with Jesus, affirming, "Jesus meets us in the ordinariness of our lives, transforming the mundane into sacred moments of encounter." The Gospel of John offers profound and intimate encounters with Jesus that are reflections of our own personal and divine appointments with the savior. It’s in these catalytic moments where we become aware of our brokenness and develop a greater longing for wholeness. Are we ready to be transformed by Jesus?
