Everyday Hope with Dave Collins

Sustenance, Part 1 - in this episode we'll talk about the first half of Season 3, Episode 8. Things finally come to an amazing conclusion in the Decapolis, as Jesus draws in the people with His teaching, and then provides sustenance in the most amazing way. 

Ears to Hear - in this episode, storylines converge as the action moves toward a conclusion that promises to be amazing. The trouble in the Decapolis demands Jesus' attention, while at the same time, Simon and Eden's pain is threatening to overcome them both. 

Ears to Hear - this episode is centered around the question John the Baptize sends to Jesus. But there is so much more going on in and around the lives of the Disciples, and we feel something brewing on the horizon - something big!

Clean, Part 2 - everything has been moving toward the 2 Big Miracles from Luke 8, Mark 5, and Matthew 9. And in this episode, we finally get to see Jesus perform these miraculous healings.

"Clean, Part 1" - Episodes 4 and 5 work together to show two amazing, linked miracles - healing the bleeding woman, and raising the daughter of Jairus. In this episode, part 1, we meet the people whose lives will soon be transformed by Jesus, as they move closer and closer to the healing miracles. 

Physician, Heal Yourself - in a less-well-known but incredibly important moment from Luke 4, Jesus returns to Nazareth and teaches in the synagogue, making a public proclamation that sparks outrage and danger. 

Two By Two - In episode 2, Jesus prepares His Disciples to go out 2 by 2, Matthew seeks his parents' forgiveness, and Little James has a big conversation with Jesus. 

"Homecoming" - In the Season 3 opener, we finally see Jesus deliver the Sermon on the Mount, and we immediately see some of the impact of that teaching on Jesus' Disciples, as those who are not yet His followers. And as a bonus, this is the first time we see all of the 12 Disciples together.

Chapter 7 - As Jesus moves toward the conclusion of this teaching, He speaks to the issue of judging, and concludes by calling us to choose. There are two paths we can follow - which will you choose? 

Matthew Chapter 6 - In chapter 6, Jesus transitions from changing our understanding about how God wants us to live in this world, to calling us to stop performing religious duties for how it makes us look, and to start living a life of obedience in our hearts and minds. 

Matthew Chapter 5 - Jesus launches into a section of the sermon where He turns traditional understanding on its head, and having the authority to do so, changes our thinking about how God wants us to live in this world.  

"The Beatitudes" - Jesus opens the Sermon on the Mount by proclaiming blessing on people. And while it's one of the best-known sections of the sermon, people struggle to understand how to apply it. In this episode, we'll attempt to simplify it, without diminishing its importance. 

"Messengers" - In the Season 2 "bonus" Christmas episode, we celebrate the nativity in a slightly different way, and rejoice with Mary as she records her Magnificat for Luke's Gospel.

"Beyond Mountains" - Most of the action of this episode moves toward Jesus delivering the Sermon on the Mount. We are also introduced to a new character - Judas Iscariot, who will join the ministry in Season 3. 

"Reckoning" - Some surprising drama in this episode will be hard to find in the Gospels. This episode drives some ongoing storylines, and provides a little suspense for those who haven't "read the book." But one little scene, that might go unnoticed, shows us how followers of Jesus should really follow. 

"Unlawful" - There's a lot going on in this episode. But the big moment is near the end, after Jesus heals a man with a withered hand, and makes a monumental statement. We'll talk about what that statement means, and why it's so important. 

"Spirit" - SimonZ is brought face-to-face with Jesus in an unusual way; Jesus has an interesting conversation with the Baptizer; and Mary Madgalene struggles. This episode doesn't boast a big Biblical event, but it does have a lot to teach about living as a follower of Jesus.

"The Perfect Opportunity" - This episode revolves around the healing of the paralytic at the Bethesda pool, and introduces some important new characters along the way. 

"Matthew 4:24" - In this episode, Jesus and the Disciples travel north into Syria, and Jesus heals all those who come to him. Based on Matthew 4:24, this episode has a lot to teach about the pettiness his followers can get caught up in.  

"I Saw You" - In Season 2 Episode2, Jesus and the Disciples head toward Syria, and add two members to the group. In this episode we'll talk about the calling of Philip and Nathanael

"Thunder" - In the opening of Season 2, Jesus remains in Samaria for two days healing and teaching. And we get a wonderful set of bookends in this episode, as John begins composing his Gospel. 

In this episode we wrap up our overview of the Gospels by diving into the Gospel of John

In this episode, we continue our overview of the Gospels, by diving into the Gospels of Matthew & Luke.

As we take a break between Seasons 1 & 2 of "The Chosen," we want to talk about about the Gospels: what are they, and what's different between them. In this episode, we take a look at the Gospels in general, and then dive into the Gospel of Mark. 

In part 2 of our discussion on Season 1, Episode 8, we finally dive into to Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman (the Woman at the Well), and discover that what Jesus offers, He offers to everyone, regardless of their social status.
