Description
MEEKNESS AND MAJESTY takes you through the week leading up to the crucifixion, looking at the amazing paradox of Christ the Servant – Christ the King. It looks also at the teachings that would have fed Jesus’ mind as He was growing up, the historical context out of which the Messianic longings grew and how God’s chosen Messiah was contrary to the Jewish longing for an all-conquering earthly king.
Through six study sessions you will follow the path Jesus took that last week – from seeing the crowds adulating Him as He entered Jerusalem, to Jesus washing His disciples’ feet, His betrayal, Peter’s denial of Him, to His walk along the streets carrying his own cross – and to His crucifixion.
Look again at your concept of Jesus and be encouraged to return to the Bible to deepen your faith and understanding of God’s purposes.
