The Script

Part 7: Keep it to Yourself

We all want our minute of fame, especially if it celebrates a significant accomplishment. for Jesus though, publicity did not always foster the healthiest response. Matthew 9:27-31

Part 6: Lose to Win

Life is precious. Regardless of the difficulties, life can become an idol that we desperately cling to. Jesus taught something beyond the norm about life, something with far more meaning and purpose. John 12:23-26

Part 5: Choose Wisely

Society elevates important and prominent people above the crowd. In fact, it’s a socially acceptable fact, unless of course, you ask Jesus what he thinks. Luke 14:8-11

Part 4: Tough Love

In Jewish times, the lines were clear between who or what was acceptable versus what was not. Jesus not only blurred the lines of definition but blew them up altogether. Luke 6:27

Part 2: Challenging the Crowd

We typically see growth as something good, especially when it’s a crowd. But what if the crowd is not healthy and is following for all the wrong reasons? John 5:58-66

Part 1: Faith Defined

Faith in the ancient world was about appeasing the gods, but Jesus turns the idea of faith into something more profound. Matthew 19:13-15
