This week BibleWorm reads the story of John the Baptist as told in John 1:19-34. We ponder John’s declaration of who he is not as well as who he is and we think about what it would mean to confess our own identity in the world. We talk about John’s acknowledgment that he himself would not have would not have recognized Jesus if it hadn’t been for the dove descending on him, and we wonder if recognizing Jesus today might be a little more more complicated than we sometimes think. And we discuss the idea of Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, wrestling with what it means to call Jesus a Lamb and what that has to do with the brokenness of both ourselves and the world.
