Show Notes
What Happens in this Episode? We conclude our narrative of the Sermon on the Mount in this Jesus Stories episode. Jesus starts by getting into our wallets and our stuff. “Don’t store up treasures here on earth…” He tells us not to worry since Jehovah God will take care of his followers. He reminds us that judgment of others brings judgment back upon us. We can only judge with the guidance of Jehovah God. Then he points out the choices that we must make. Which road will we travel? Which voices will we listen to? On what foundation will we build our lives? Scriptures used in this episode:
Matthew 6:19-34 Luke 6:37-42 Matthew 7:6-29 Luke 7:24-30

What Happens in This Episode? In this Jesus Stories episode, as Jesus approaches Jerusalem he tells a parable of a rich nobleman. He visits the home of Simon the leper, whom he had healed. Simon hosts a party in his honor. Among the attendees are Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. Mary anoints Jesus with oil – much to the dismay of some. Jesus finally rides into Jerusalem and is honored as the King he is. While the crowd shouts approval, the Pharisees plot to kill both Jesus and Lazarus. Jesus laments Jerusalem’s future fate when he enters the city, takes a look at the Temple and then leaves. Scriptures Referenced in This Episode:
WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE? In this Jesus Stores episode, we look at what Resurrection really means for those who follow Jesus. We explain the meaning of Resurrection – as Jesus would have us understand it – and what that means for our lives.
