Send us a text In Part 2 of our powerful conversation with Pastor Jonathan Henderson of Grace Hill Church in Glendale, CA, we dive deeper into some of the biggest questions people of faith wrestle with: Why does God allow bad things to happen? Were we ever meant to fear God? And what does Scripture really say about Jesus’ finished work? Jonathan shares a freeing and deeply compassionate perspective rooted in Scripture-one that reveals a God who never intended us to be afraid of Him. We unpack why “perfect love casts out fear,” why fear and love cannot coexist, and how misunderstanding the character of God has shaped fear-based theology for centuries. We also explore Jonathan’s belief that Jesus’ work was spiritually completed before He went to the cross, and how the cross ultimately exposed the lies and violence of Satan-not the character of God. If you’ve ever struggled with fear-based religion, questioned God’s role in suffering, or longed for a clearer picture of God’s love, this episode brings healing, clarity, and liberation.
