📖 EPISODE DESCRIPTION In the final episode of the Kingdom Roots Christmas Special mini-season, Jacquie Tyre and Trey Milner arrive at the most weighty “Place of the Heart” in the life of Jesus: Jerusalem.
Jerusalem is more than a city—it is the spiritual picture of shalom, Zion, and the rule and reign of the King. It is the place of worship and community… and also the place of conflict, confrontation, betrayal, suffering, and ultimate victory. It’s where Jesus walked in the tension of purpose: celebrated with “Hosanna” one day and rejected with “Crucify Him” the next—yet He never went off course.
In this episode, Jacquie and Trey connect the full journey of the mini-season:
✨ Bethlehem — new birth, seeds of destiny, and spiritual beginnings ✨ Nazareth — formation, training, humility, and the pain of familiarity ✨ Jordan & the Wilderness — baptismal identity, Holy Spirit empowerment, and testing ✨ Jerusalem — home base, Zion, the Prince of Peace, and staying the course
You’ll hear powerful reflections on Jesus’ earliest Jerusalem encounters (Simeon and Anna), His 12-year-old “Father’s business” moment in the temple, and the deep spiritual reality of Jerusalem as the place of life, death, resurrection, ascension, and being seated with Christ in heavenly places.
This episode calls listeners to stop striving from an earthly mindset and begin living from a heavenly perspective—not “climbing the mountain,” but stepping out of Zion into the mountain in Christ’s authority.
The conversation closes with a strong blessing for 2026: that it would be the best year yet as believers live in the reality of the Kingdom—in the world, but not of it.
