WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE?

From the beginning of time, Jehovah God has set an ideal for families. In this Jesus Stories episode, we begin by talking about this ideal. Then our guest speaker, Al Robinson, will take us into the current time and using the example of King David (or the non-example, if you will) share with us some principles we can put into practice to improve our family relationships. This is a vitally important discussion for Jesus Stories.

What Happens in this Episode?

This Jesus Stories episode allows the scriptures to tell the story of the birth of Jesus. While I connect each reading with a short commentary, the scriptures speak the story for themselves. At the end we draw some conclusions about how Jesus has affected the entire world and ask, Has he affected yours?

WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE?

This Jesus Stories episode dives deep into Jesus second “I am” statement: “I AM the light of the world.” What does that mean? Where does that come from? What does it mean for us? How should it affect our lives? And how does Thanksgiving play into this statement? There’s a lot to think about in this episode.

#4-55 I AM!

WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE?

In this Jesus Stories episode, Jesus tells his listeners of his identity.  However, the Pharisees and other Jews spend more time arguing than listening. Jesus challenges them with his words and reveals who he is, where he has come from, and from where he has received his authority. That doesn’t set well with the teachers and Pharisees. Although, some others believe.  I break down this teaching to help you understand this interchange.

4-36 Warnings & Waiting

Posted on by admin

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

What Happens in this Episode?

We resume the narrative from episode #4-34. Jesus is in the midst of a crowd of thousands of people. People are stepping all over each other – in spite of Jesus rough teaching to the Pharisees. Now Jesus turns to these people with his own warnings about the Pharisees. He continues with a challenge to speak up for him even when it is difficult. He teaches about greed and repeats a lesson we heard in the Sermon on the Mount – don’t worry. He reminds his listeners to be ready; ready to serve, ready for Jesus to return.
