The Scriptures Are Real

Jan and Kerry discuss patterns we see in the beatitudes, and how Christ is teaching us how to progress. They find how He makes it all possible, and covenant connections. They also help us see how to make these things happen in our daily lives. They also explore how to avoid perfectionism on the path.

In this shortcast, Kerry talks about what life was really like for people in the Savior's day. Where did they live? What were their homes like? How did they interact with family? What did they eat? How did they prepare that food? What did they eat on? What was ritual cleanliness for them and how did that play out in regular life? Answering each of these questions allows us to understand better many stories and parables we read about in the New Testament. Further, it allows us to picture these stories better, making them, and Jesus, all the more real for us.

In this episode Kerry and Trevan discuss what life was like for a Galilean Jew. How long did they live, how did they get by, how did they dress, what was life like for them? Addressing these questions will make many New Testament Stories be more real and understandable for you. They also discuss what the Jews of the day were expecting in a Messiah, and how that interacts with what Jesus did during His ministry, and how He was accepted. Again, this will help you understand the rest of the New Testament.
