A new church calendar year begins with a text about the end of this world. 

Dr. Paulson joins Kiri and Adam to discuss this week's lectionary text about Jesus telling Peter all that's to come: his betrayal, his crucifixion, his resurrection, and finally the end of this world. 

• Why is a story of the end of times being told at the beginning of the church calendar year?
• What does it mean that God has cursed Jesus on the cross?
• What are the differences between Jesus giving signs and promises?
