What would it be like to join a Bible study with Dr. John Bergsma?

In this special episode of Stunned by Scripture, filmed live at the SEEK 2026 Conference in Columbus, OH, Dr. Bergsma is joined by a group of attendees & staff for a short study of Matthew 3:13-17—the Baptism in the Jordan.

Listen in as together they discuss the value of both private and group Bible study, why Jesus asked John to baptize Him, and what Jewish readers would’ve thought as soon as they read, “This is my beloved son.”

This verse-by-verse discussion of Jesus’ baptism in the Jordan will give you insights you’ve never considered, helping you embrace your identity as a beloved son or daughter of God.
