Learning From Luke

Ep. 73 "This Poor Widow Put In More Than All"

(Luke 21:1-4). During His final week, Jesus observes those who were donating to the Temple treasury. This episode highlights a teachable moment when a poor widow gives only two mites. How is it that Jesus could say that she gave more than all?

Ep. 72 "Therefore, David Calls Him Lord"

(Luke 20:41-44). Returning to the subject of His authority, Jesus confronts the Pharisees with a question of His own. If the Christ is the the son of David, why did king David refer to Him as Lord? This episode explores the implications of David’s mysterious statement in the Book of Psalms (110:1).

Ep. 71 "He Is Not The God of the Dead"

(Luke 20:27-40). When Jesus is challenged by the Sadducees who reject the resurrection of the dead, the Lord responds with irrefutable reasoning from the scriptures.

Ep. 70 "Render To Caesar"

(Luke 20:20-25). This episode discusses the delicate balance between a Christian’s relationship with God and government.

Ep. 69 "I Will Send My Beloved Son"

(Luke 20:9-19). In the Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers, Jesus predicts how many of Israel will respond to the sending of God’s only Son. In this teaching, the Lord highlights the patience, mercy, and love of God while warning of the severe consequences faced by those who reject the Son of God.
