Who was Jesus of Nazareth? He was the founder of Christianity, the largest religion in the world today. But who exactly was he? To many, he is a hazy historical figure who seems obscure and irrelevant for today's world. Some may wonder if he even existed at all? Millions of people find Jesus interesting, but why? Why does he attract so much attention, and even love? These are the questions we explore in this examination of the life, ministry, and person of Jesus of Nazareth. Who was he? What did he do? And why might he be important for someone today?

In this examination, we will look at four things Jesus did:

• He was born.
• He preached.
• He healed.
• He called disciples.

We will look at four important teachings of Jesus:

• The Parable of the Sower.
• The Parable of the Good Samaritan.
• The Parable of the Prodigal Son.
• The Sermon on the Mount.

Finally, we will look at three key events in the life of Jesus:

• His crucifixion.
• His resurrection.
• His ascension.

At the conclusion of our study, we will ask what importance Jesus might have for someone today? Anyone interested in religious matters should take the time to examine the life of Jesus of Nazareth. Christianity makes a remarkable claim: that Jesus was the unique son of God who came into the world to save humanity. If this is true, it is of immense importance. But is it true? That is what we examine in this study of the life, ministry, and person of Jesus of Nazareth, whom Christians call Jesus, the "Christ."
