#33 – Prayer and Resurrection (Heading Toward Home V)

WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE A comment on the events happening in Ukraine. A quote from The Unvarnished Jesus: A Lenten Journey. Jesus teaches on prayer. Keep praying. Don’t give up. The prayers of a Pharisee and a tax collector. “Those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Parable of the landowner who hires help for his vineyard. He pays everyone the same, regardless of how long they worked. “So those who are last now will be first then, and those who are first will be last.” Jesus goes to his friend Lazarus to “wake him up.” He raises him from death to live again. The Sanhedrin plots a way to kill Jesus.
