Some Greeks want to see Jesus. That's the subtitle of today's focus passage for Coffee to Go. Should we accommodate them? Is it appropriate to make Jesus available to anyone seeking him? Join Project Zion Podcast co-hosts Karin Peter and Blake Smith as they explore the common interpretation of this passage and propose an alternative perspective. In this alternative reading, God's "honor" takes on a more inclusive meaning, suggesting that there is an abundance of God's honor to be shared with all, rather than being kept exclusive to a select few.
