Have you ever wondered what it would be like to walk in the shoes of Jesus' disciples, experiencing the shock, disbelief, and confusion they felt when Jesus declared his impending death? Imagine being in the midst of pagan rituals and child sacrifices in the ancient city of Caesarea Philippi, only to hear that your leader, Jesus, must journey to Jerusalem to face his end. This episode gives us a rich, historical immersion where we delve into the disciples' reactions, especially that of Peter's misguided attempt to thwart Jesus' mission. We paint a vivid picture of the city; from its ancient cave believed to be a dwelling place for spirits to the chilling rituals that took place.
Dare to step further into the shoes of the apostles in this episode as we examine their human reality and the rivalry among them, personified in the characters of Peter and Judas. We take a close look at Peter's audacity in declaring Jesus as the Christ and contrast it with Judas' despair symbolized by the crowing rooster. We also analyze the implications of Jesus' prediction concerning his journey to Jerusalem and the conditions it sets for discipleship in our lives today. Expect to be challenged, inspired, and perhaps even unsettled, as we journey through this riveting exploration of faith, humanity and divine purpose.
