Friday, February 14th: It’s Valentine’s Day on The Daily Grind, and John and Maritza are diving into John 14—a chapter all about love, trust, and the promise that we are never alone. Broadcasting from different states for the first time, they reflect on Jesus’ words of comfort to His disciples on the night before His crucifixion. What does it mean when Jesus says, “Let not your hearts be troubled”? How does His promise to prepare a place for us mirror ancient Jewish wedding customs? And what is the significance of His statement, “I am the way, the truth, and the life”? John and Maritza unpack these themes, highlighting how Jesus assures His followers that, even in His physical absence, He will send the Holy Spirit to be with them always. They also reflect on how worry steals our peace, the power of trusting God's plan, and how love is more than a feeling—it’s an action. As they close out, Maritza shares a heartfelt reflection on how love calls us to serve, grow, and believe, making every step of faith an adventure. Don’t miss this episode filled with warmth, insight, and the ultimate reminder that we are never alone in Christ’s love.
