Dead Enough to Live - John 12:20–33

In John 12:20–33, Jesus reveals a mystery that terrifies the ego but frees the soul: “Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.”

In this message, Pastor John L. Widdifield exposes how the modern world worships the self—and why true life begins only when pride dies.

Through powerful imagery, cultural insight, and gospel truth, Dead Enough to Live calls believers to lay down self-preservation and discover resurrection life in Christ.
