What Is In This Episode?

This episode of Jesus Stories delves into the early opposition to Jesus’ teaching. Who objected to his words? Why did they object? How did Jesus answer them? What does that mean for you and me? When we hear Jesus’ words, do we really hear him? Or do we object to his words due to our own preconceived notions?
