Don’t put away your Easter decorations yet!! In this Easter-season reflection on the Gospel of John 14, Karin Peter and Blake Smith wrestle with one of Jesus’ most quoted—and often misunderstood—statements: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” Together, they reframe this passage not as a boundary of exclusion, but as an invitation into a way of being shaped by compassion, trust, and divine presence. Through personal stories and theological insight, they explore how God’s promise of “dwelling places” speaks to our deep longing for belonging and peace. Listeners are invited to consider what it means to walk the way of Jesus daily and to create spaces where that love can be experienced and shared.
