What Happens in This Episode?

In this Jesus Stories episode, we take a deep dive into two questions. First, Jesus asks all of us, “Who Do You Say I Am?” The answer to this question had profound effects on the life of Peter who responded, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” Our answer also has profound effects on our lives. We discuss the implications of that answer. Second, Jehovah God asks, “To whom do you listen?” Our response determines how we live. Through the Sermon on the Mount, we ask the questions Jesus might have for us to determine to whom we are listening.
