Class 23 – Jesus Christ Among the Lehites
Special note: the video for this class is a “Silent Lesson.” The main idea with a silent lesson is a lesson in which nobody talks—at least not until the very end. It combines scripture passages, reflective questions, video clips, and music into a seamless blend of silent scripture searching and pondering. This approach can help create an environment where the Spirit can do the teaching. I hope you have a special spiritual experience with this silent lesson. You’ll need 45-60 minutes of uninterrupted time to go through this video.
Suggested Pre-Class Readings
To prepare for this video, please read the following four chapters. Let the following four questions guide your reading: (1) What can I learn from what Jesus says? (2) What can I learn from what Jesus does? (3) What can I learn from the people interacting with Christ do? (4) What will I do in my life to apply these chapters?
Questions to focus on
The video contains all the questions you might want to consider pondering.
