The Weight of Dad’s Words + The Love of the Father - Matthew S1E2

The Weight of Dad’s Words + The Love of the Father - Matthew S1E2

January 19, 2026 · 1 hr 5 min

Why do a father’s blessing land so deeply—and why does a “dad wound” shape how we see God? In this episode of Deepen, Pastor Joby and the guys talk through the weight of a father’s words, the life and ministry of John the Baptist, and why the call to repent is both urgent and hope-filled. They also unpack baptism—what it is, what it isn’t, and why obedience matters (without turning it into a work)—plus how the Holy Spirit fills believers for witness, surrender, and life change.

So what’s your next step: are you ready to stop being “Christian-adjacent” and follow Jesus in real obedience—starting with baptism?
