Welcome back to the Coffee and Bible Time podcast.

For those that may be listening for the first time, our podcast is an offshoot from our main platform YouTube.

Our channel is called Coffee and Bible Time where our goal is to help people delight in God's Word and thrive in Christian living.

We also have a website in storefront with Bible studies, prayer journals, courses, and more.

And I'm so excited to tell you about our brand new in-depth Bible Study Academy.

Have you always wished you knew how to in-depth study the Bible for yourself, but you just don't have time to go to Bible College?

We'll join us this year as we adventure through 12 different courses designed to give you the

background and the tools to study the Bible for yourselves.

You can find out more information about the Academy on our website at coffee and Bible time.com.

I'm Mentor Mama, and today we are going to be talking about Jesus' heart and his actions toward the lost and brokenhearted.

You know, Jesus' actions in the Bible towards people who are discouraged, people who doubt,

people who are fearful or feel like outcasts tell us so much about how he loves us even today,

right where we are at this exact moment.

Our guest today, Jessica Thompson, author of the book, He Loved Them, Discovering Jesus' Heart

for Seekers, Sinners,, doubters, and the discouraged,

and other people like us is here to talk more about the love Jesus had towards the people

he interacted with in the Bible and how that love spills over to us today, even in our failures. How does he do that? Stay tuned to find out.

Jessica Thompson is the author of several books, including Give Them Grace, dazzling your kids with

the love of Christ, and is a frequent conference speaker.

She is part of the podcast Front Porch with the Fitzs and is the director of church life

at Risen Church in San Diego, California.

Please welcome, Jessica.
