The crucifixion, the burial and the resurrection of Jesus.

Jesus and the disciples have their last supper together, Jesus is betrayed into the hands of his enemies, and Peter denies him three times.

Jesus tells some parables.

A very wide variety of teaching from Jesus today. There are healings for those who need them, and scolding for the Pharisees. Music: Mark Steven Brocke…”Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” http://markstevenbrocke.com

Jesus chooses the twelve, teaches about the Kingdom of God, heals many, restores life to the dead son of a widow, speaks to the Pharisees about hypocrisy, and forgives sins.

Jesus is tempted in the desert and then begins his public ministry. He heals, he begins calling his disciples, and some of the religious leaders are already getting their feathers ruffled.
