Our Latest Faith Lesson
What is the Greatest Commandment?
Jesus is asked, 'What is the Greatest Commandment?'

In this video, we explore the background to the question and how it would have been understood by his first-century audience.

We also explore a rule of bible interpretation called Gezerah Shavah that Jesus and his audience would have been familiar with. Using this rule, Jesus is able to connect two commandments from the Old Testament.

Connecting these two commands from the Old Testament Jesus deepens what it means to love God and love your neighbor.

Sea of Galilee Series
In this series we travel around the Sea of Galilee to explore the many Jesus stories that take place in that region. 

The area surrounding the Sea of Galilee was a combustive mixture of Jews and Gentile; Roman power and the Zealots. 

We often think that Jesus started a peasant movement out in the middle of nowhere. This could not be farther from the truth.

Jesus placed his ministry right on the main road of Capernaum for all to see. He mixed with everyone, from the hyper-religious Zealots to the idol worshiping pagans. 

This series will open your eyes and challenge your presuppositions to they many stories you have known for years.
