In Episode 2 of the Mark series, we explore how recognition of Jesus’s authority moves beyond immediate action to deeper questions of faith and rejection. Through the healing of the paralytic in Mark 2 and the confrontation with the Pharisees in Mark 3, we see that both believers and non-believers are compelled to acknowledge Jesus’s divine authority—even if they respond differently.

In episode 1 of the Mark series, we explore how belief begins with the recognition of Jesus’s authority. From His baptism and early preaching to the immediate responses of Simon, Andrew, James, and John, Mark emphasizes that true belief is revealed through bold, counter-cultural obedience. This episode lays the foundation for Mark’s portrait of an authentic disciple: recognizing Christ’s authority and responding in faith without hesitation.

In this concluding episode of the Matthew series, we explore how being a disciple is marked by bold obedience and continual witness. Drawing from Matthew’s Gospel, we see Joseph’s courage, the disciples’ immediate response to Jesus’s call, and the leper’s testimony—all as examples of obedience that surpass cultural expectations and flow into visible witness. Jesus prioritizes compassion over ritual, reminding us that being an authentic disciple is not about outward performance but about transformed hearts that glorify God through word and deed. Together, repentance, obedience, and witness form Matthew’s portrait of an authentic disciple, whose lives testify to Christ’s authority and invite others into a relationship with Jesus Christ.

In episode 1 of the Matthew series, we explore the Gospel of Matthew’s foundational vision of a disciple—one anchored in a kingdom-focused perspective and shaped by repentance.

In Episode 2 of the Great Commission series, we explore the final component of Jesus’s call to make disciples: teaching others to observe all that He commanded. Through the lens of Greek grammar, we discover that teaching is not merely about transferring information—it’s about cultivating transformation. Jesus’s commands are not optional; they are the foundation of a disciple’s life and mission. This episode reminds us that to be a disciple is to live under Christ’s authority and to carry forward His redemptive plan by teaching others to do the same.

In Episode 1 of the Great Commission series, we explore the foundational call to make disciples as given in Matthew 28:19–20. Jesus’s words are more than a farewell—they are a defining directive rooted in divine authority. Through careful attention to the Greek grammar, we uncover how the command to “go” and “make disciples” reveals a present reality, not a future plan. This episode reminds us that disciple-making is not optional—it’s the mission.

In episode 8 of the Jesus’s Authority series, we reflect on the full scope of Jesus’s “I Am” statements in the Gospel of John. Each metaphor—bread, light, shepherd, resurrection, way, and vine—reveals a facet of Christ’s divine identity and relational invitation. Together, they form a dynamic portrait of Jesus’s authority and the daily tension experienced by those who follow Him. To be a disciple of Christ is not about perfection—it’s about connection. As we close this series, we’re reminded that being a disciple means living with intention, staying rooted in Christ’s love, and walking closely with Him every day

In episode 7 of the Jesus’s Authority series, we explore two final “I Am” declarations that reveal both the intimacy and authority of Christ. In John 15, Jesus says, “I am the vine,” inviting His disciples into a life of connection and fruitfulness. In John 18, He says, “I am He,” and even His enemies fall to the ground. These moments—one relational, one confrontational—together form a powerful portrait of divine identity. Jesus doesn’t just nourish His followers—He commands reverence.
