About this listen

The teachings of Jesus lead us to a better, fuller life. This was true in the ancient world where Jesus first taught, and it’s still true today. But what does it mean to actually practice the way of Jesus in today’s complex, secular world? In this podcast by Practicing the Way, John Mark Comer responds to that important question through his teachings at Bridgetown Church in Portland, Oregon. Join us as John Mark provides practical insight on how you can be with Jesus, become like Him and do what He did wherever you are today.

    What comes out of you when life squeezes you? John Mark explores the transformative power of Scripture memorization—not as a childhood relic, but as a vital practice for spiritual formation, mental renewal, and resilience in suffering. He challenges us to build an inner library of God’s Word so that, like Jesus, we’re prepared to meet pain, temptation, and everyday moments with truth formed deep in our hearts.

I loved this teaching!! I especially loved the call to eat and drink together as Jesus intended. How many times do we hear a message that tells us, This is how we are meant to practice… but we just continue same old same old. In my church in Edinburgh, Scotland, our minister is doing a series of sermons on “meals of the bible” - I’m really interested to see what comes out of the Lord’s supper. The last talk challenged us to practice hospitality by inviting other church members for a meal at our house… so who knows? Thank you for this message.
