Jesus in Galilee – Part 1 Luke describes the many miracles and teaching sessions by Jesus performed in and around his home town and neighboring area.

Jesus in Galilee – Part 3 In this final part of Jesus’ ministry in Galilee, Luke continues to describe Jesus’ miracles but adds a section explaining how He prepared and sent out disciples on their first missionary journey. Jesus Facing Jerusalem – Part 1 Luke turns his attention to Jesus’ preparation for His journey south to Jerusalem and the opposition that awaits Him there. Jesus Facing Jerusalem – Part 2 Now that Jesus approaches Jerusalem, He is met with stiff opposition from the Pharisees and Priests who question both His teachings and legitimacy to teach.

Jesus Facing Jerusalem – Part 4 Jesus heals 10 lepers and makes a prophecy concerning the coming judgment on the city of Jerusalem for having rejected it’s divine Messiah.

The Consummation – Part 1 The first of a two-part lesson describing the early events leading to Jesus’ death on the cross. The Consummation – Part 2 Luke describes the final scene of Jesus’ death and burial as well as the glorious aftermath of His resurrection on the 3rd day following His crucifixion.

The class will also review the events surrounding the day of Pentecost and begin to follow the ministry of Peter the Apostle. Peter’s Post Pentecost Ministry The amazing success of Peter’s Pentecost sermon is quickly followed by another miracle, a subsequent arrest and Peter’s defense of the Gospel. Persecution of Peter and Apostles Luke describes the amazing case of Ananias and Sapphira’s sudden death and the continued persecution of the Apostles by the Jewish leadership. Persecution of the Church – Part 1 Luke describes the events taking place and the people who were part of the first congregation of the church in Jerusalem. Persecution of the Church – Part 2 Luke continues to describe the events taking place and the people who were part of the first congregation of the church in Jerusalem.
