What if eternal life isn't about how long we live—but about knowing God intimately? In episode 15 of "Jesus – Our Hero Husband", Duane Sheriff teaches that Jesus defined eternal life not by its duration, but by its relationship: "that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." The biblical word "know" is used throughout Scripture to describe the intimate union between a husband and wife. Just as Adam knew Eve and they became one flesh, believers are invited into a covenant relationship with Christ that goes far beyond religion and into genuine intimacy with God.
Under the New Covenant, there is no mediator standing between our heavenly Husband and us. Even Jesus' invitation in Revelation 3:20 is a call for His own bride to open the door to deeper fellowship. As we draw near to Him through His Word, prayer, communion, meditation, and the ministry of the Holy Spirit, we grow in our knowledge of God.
Discover how God's Word, prayer, communion, meditation, and other spiritual disciplines cultivate a deeper relationship with Christ, why drawing near to Him produces the fruit of the Holy Spirit, and how intimacy with our Hero Husband transforms every area of the Christian life.

Do you believe that it's God's will to heal? Our experiences, disappointments, traditions, or someone else's lack of healing cannot determine our answer. God's Word must establish His will.
Where do we place our confidence? Are we building our confidence based on our accomplishments? When we compare ourselves to others by race, title, background, education, or success, we are placing confidence in ourselves instead of Christ.
Faithfulness is the key to increase in life and ministry. Greater opportunities and influence begin with being faithful in the little things God has already entrusted to us.
Are you pursuing greatness on God's terms or on the world's terms? The world teaches us to climb higher, promote ourselves, gain influence, and push past others to succeed. However, Philippians 2 reveals a radically different path.
What does it look like to have genuine, unshakeable joy when life is falling apart around us? Joy is not a prize waiting at the finish line of our struggles or reserved for moments when things go as we hoped. Scripture reveals that supernatural joy can remain even in the middle of suffering, uncertainty, and chaos beyond our control.
