A new Bible study on John 6:66–69 is now live in OpenBibleLab in the Guided Bible Study room. This passage brings us to a quiet but weighty moment where following Jesus becomes less about clarity and more about staying.
In the study, we slow down at the moment many disciples turn back and no longer walk with Jesus. What’s striking is what Jesus does not do. He does not explain himself or soften his words. Instead, he turns to the twelve and asks a simple, open question. Peter’s response is not confident or polished. It is honest. He does not claim understanding, only allegiance. “Lord, to whom shall we go?” The future is unclear, but the relationship is not.
That tension stays unresolved, and it seems intentional. The passage invites attention rather than answers.
A few questions to sit with as you read or reread the text:
👀 What do you notice about Jesus’ question to the twelve?
🤔 What does Peter say, and what does he leave unsaid?
🌱 Where does staying feel harder than leaving in this scene?
The full study is available in the Premium course area, and this conversation is open to everyone. Whether you’ve read the study yet or not, share one detail that stood out to you, or one question that lingered. What are you noticing as you slow down with this passage?
