Born Again: New Life from Above – John 3:1–21

In this episode of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane dive into John 3:1–21, the iconic conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus. What does it truly mean to be born again? Together, they unpack the difference between religious knowledge and spiritual rebirth, the role of the Spirit in new life, and the radical love of God revealed through Jesus. This passage invites us out of striving and into surrender—where belief leads to transformation and darkness gives way to light

John 3:3 – “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”
John 3:5 – “No one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.”
John 3:15 - "Whoever believes in him [Jesus] should not perish but have eternal life."
John 3:16 – “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son…”
John 3:17 – “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world…”
John 3:19–21 – Light vs. darkness—what we choose reveals what we believe.
