Disease. Nature. Demons. Sin. Death. Despair. In just two chapters of Matthew, Jesus demonstrates His absolute authority over every single one of them. The Greek words are Ta Panta — "The All" — and they describe the total, unqualified sovereignty of Jesus over all things.

In this episode, Dave Scherrer takes you on a rapid-fire survey through Matthew 8 and 9 to make one unmistakable point: Jesus has proven authority over the entirety of the human condition. But here's the part most people miss — the point isn't that Jesus can make all the bad things go away. The leper probably got sick again. The little girl eventually died. The real point is that nothing can hinder God's plan to populate His Kingdom with redeemed, free-willed citizens who worship the King forever. That is a hope worth dying for — and a hope worth living for.

Two blind men sitting by the road shouted something the crowd didn't want to hear: "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!" The crowd told them to shut up. Jesus stopped and asked them a question that changes everything: "What do you want me to do for you?"

In this episode of the "Jesus the Mystery" series, Dave Scherrer unpacks Matthew 20:29-34 and reveals what's really happening beneath the surface of this healing story. These blind men could see what the crowd could not — that Jesus was the Messiah King. And when Jesus healed their eyes, He answered their deeper need too. They received their sight and followed Him. A covenant fulfilled. This Ash Wednesday, the same question lands on us: What do you want Jesus to do for you?

A wealthy young man walked up to Jesus and asked the ultimate question: "What must I do to get eternal life?" Jesus' answer left everyone stunned — including the disciples. It wasn't about keeping the rules. It was about who sits on the throne of your life.

In this episode of the "Jesus the Mystery" series, Dave Scherrer unpacks Matthew 19:16-30 — the story of the rich young ruler. Jesus takes a passing conversation and turns it into an eternal life lesson about wealth, salvation, and the upside-down order of the Kingdom. The world says rich equals blessed. Jesus says the first will be last. And then He drops this: "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

The disciples wanted to know who would hold the most power in Jesus' Kingdom. His answer? He called over a child and placed them right in the middle of the argument. In this episode, Dave Scherrer continues the "Jesus the Mystery" series by unpacking Matthew 18:1-5 — where Jesus completely redefines greatness. The Kingdom doesn't run on ambition and position. It runs on humility and sacrifice. And that question still falls on us today. Part of the Kingdom Offerings podcast from 100 Fold Ministries.

Jesus walked past the religious crowd and invited himself to dinner with the most hated man in Jericho.

In this episode, Dave Scherrer unpacks Luke 19:1-10 — the familiar story of Zacchaeus — and reveals what most people miss.

Why did Jesus break every expectation of a first-century Rabbi?

What did He see in a tax-collecting traitor that nobody else could? And what does this mean for us today?

This episode is part of the "Jesus the Mystery" series, exploring the moments where Jesus messes with our priorities and paradigms.

Join Dave Scherrer from A Hundred Fold Ministries as he kicks off 2026 with a foundational exploration of the Kingdom of God. In this episode of Kingdom Offerings, Dave unpacks why understanding the gospel of the kingdom is central to the mission of Hundredfold Ministries—just as it was for the Apostle Paul and Jesus's disciples.

Discover what a kingdom truly is, explore common misconceptions about God's kingdom, and learn about the essential elements that define it: a monarch, territory, people, sovereignty, laws, and shared culture. Dave explains how the Kingdom of God has existed since before creation and how we're invited to participate in its "now, but not yet" reality as we await Christ's return.
