1. A paralytic is lowered through a roof, sins are absolved, an unlikely person is called to follow Jesus and Jesus gets in trouble for partying with sinners.
  2. Leprosy, demons, sinful fishermen and a mother-in-law. All that in more in this episode.
  3. Temptation in the wilderness. A riot in His hometown. Silencing a demon. Jesus is busy in this episode.
  4. John is preaching in the wilderness and baptizing people in the Jordan River.
  5. If you admit that you’re the weaker brother, does that make you the stronger brother because the stronger brother refused to admit he’s the weaker brother? . . . or something like that.
  6. Jesus is born, and His birth is proclaimed to shepherds which includes good news for all of us.
  7. Orgies and drunkenness and licentiousness, oh my! Sometimes Christians get hung up on the really “big” sins, but Paul lists quarreling and jealousy right there with them. What’s the connection? Craig and Troy discuss how love does no wrong to a neighbor, for love is the fulfillment of the law.
  8. Daniel and Erick continue in Luke with the birth of John. Zachariah finally speaks and there is much to discuss in what he says.
  9. Gabriel appears to Mary with the shocking announcement that she is to be the mother of the Son of God. How should we view Mary?
  10. “Let your love be genuine!” But what if it’s not? The Apostle Paul gives us a list that seems hard to fulfill. If it is up to us, we’re in trouble. But if it is all in Christ, it is done. Love! “Butwhat’s in it for me?” When we fail, we flee to Christ. We know what genuine love is by looking at Christ, and in faith we receive genuine love from Him.
  11. Daniel and Erick begin the Gospel of Luke in this episode. After some introduction, they discuss the promise of the birth of John the baptizer.
  12. Daniel and Erick wrap up Paul’s letter to the Philippians. He can “do all things through Christ”, what does that statement mean for him and us?
