Sparks for Latter-day Saints: A Come, Follow Me Podcast

Easter Part 1: Mar 29 - Apr 4


Listen Later

This week we commemorate the single most important event in the history of everything: the atonement and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Or as William Tyndale would have said: the at-one-ment of Christ. It’s a topic so big I had to divide it in two parts. So for those who only have time for less than 20 minutes, you’re still covered. If you have time for more, you can listen to the second episode.

 

In this episode I’ll talk about Pesach and Shavuot, two Jewish holidays, and the numbers seven and eight. In part 2, I’ll discuss the third Jewish festival Sukkot.
