What's coming up Saturday on the Deeper Waters Podcast? Let's plunge into the Deeper Waters and find out.
Kings. We don't really think about them much today. Here in the West, we live with a president over us and several governing bodies like Congress and the Senate. Washington is a large organization with numerous parties involved. It's hard for Westerners to think about a king.
Yet if the Bible is true, we do have a king. Even non-Christians have this king. Their not acknowledging Him doesn't change that He is the king. This king is Jesus. Jesus is the last king of Israel and the current ruling king of the universe.
What can you learn from this person? What did He go through in His life? I decided that it would be good to look at the Passion of Jesus and discuss how it applies to our life and how we can learn about Jesus and His response to suffering and what He saw as worthwhile in life. To do that, I decided to have Michael Chung come on. He is the author of the book Jesus, The Last King of Israel.
So who is he?

According to his bio:
Not only will we be discussing the last week of Jesus, we will spend some time on some issues that are troublesome to Christians and scholars alike. The first will be the anointing of Jesus. Do the accounts contradict? Even the number of days looks to be mentioned. The second is the cursing of the fig tree. Does this really fit in with the character of Christ?
Mainly, we will be looking at what Jesus did during His passion. How did Jesus approach it? What did He do with these moments that would be the last ones of His fully public ministry? How did He handle problems of failure among His disciples? Who was it that He wanted to go and spend His time with? The way a person dies can reveal a lot about them and if Jesus knew that He was going to die, what does the way He spent His time reveal about Him?
Also, briefly if anyone is interested, we didn't do a show last week due to my being out of state for a funeral, but we hope to make it up this week with this interview. I hope you'll be looking forward to this one showing up on your podcast feed. Please also go and write a review of the Deeper Waters Podcast and let me know how you like the show. I'm working hard on getting the best for you.
In Christ,
Nick Peters
