Robert Millet is joined today by Peter Huff, Chief Missions Officer at Benedictine University. The conversation focused on passages from John 3-4, part of the upcoming week's New Testament Come, Follow Me curriculum (2/6-12).
They discussed Latter-day Saint and Catholic views on the meaning of being "born again," and the necessity of baptism, as well as the highs and depths of Spiritual life as a Christian. Brother Millet described a period in his life where depression made it challenging to have the Spirit present, and how that impacted him in his calling, and life. They also discussed the contrast between the identities and social statuses of both Nicodemus and the Woman at the Well, and how Jesus met both of them where they were to help them understand His doctrines, and how He does the same for us.
