Authority = Polarity
Jesus’ teaching astonishes the crowds, demonstrating His authority. He performs miraculous wonders – healing the sick and calming the raging seas. The crowds begin to ask “who is this man and by what authority has he come?”
Jesus’ Purpose
The mission of Jesus is revealed as he continues to heal and bring life, teach the crowds, and call the twelve disciples to follow him for the ministry ahead. Could there be more to Jesus than just a prophet, good teacher or healer?
The Chosen Tested
Jesus sends the twelve disciples to proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God, and gives them authority to heal and cast out demons in his name. The mission is bold and costly – will the disciples prove faithful to the call?
Have You Understood
John the Baptist expresses doubt that Jesus is the Saviour that he had prophesied would come. The mystery of Jesus’ revelation begins as He invites all troubled souls to come and find rest in Him. Who will see and behold the glory of Jesus?
That’s Enough
Opposition and evil escalate in a plot to kill Jesus. Signs are demanded by those who have failed to recognise who Jesus is. The end of evil for eternity is foreshadowed. Who will see Jesus as hope for humanity in darkness?
Secret Revelation
Jesus teaches on the kingdom of heaven in a series of parables such as a treasure found hidden in a field, or a mustard seed that grows into a beautiful tree, or a pearl worth selling everything you have to keep. Will those who seek find hope in the kingdom of God?
