The Things He Said
The stories that flipped the room. Samaritans, sons, and a narrow door.
The Good Samaritan
A man gets robbed and left for dead. Religious people walk past. The despised outsider stops to help. 'Who was the neighbor?'
The Prodigal Son
He took his inheritance, blew it all, and came crawling back to eat pig food. His dad threw him a party anyway.
The Wedding Feast Parables
Invitations go out to the VIPs. They all make excuses. So the host invites everyone from the streets instead.
The Narrow Door
'Strive to enter through the narrow door.' Many will try and fail. Urgency rings out — don't wait.
Counting the Cost
Following Jesus isn't casual. Count the cost first. He's not looking for fans — he wants people who'll carry a cross.
The Shrewd Manager
A manager about to get fired cuts deals with his boss's debtors. Jesus praises the hustle. Wait, what?
The Rich Man & Lazarus
A rich man ignores a beggar at his gate. They both die. The reversal on the other side is permanent.
The Good Shepherd
'I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.' Jesus defines leadership by sacrifice.
Teaching Them to Pray
'Lord, teach us to pray.' Jesus gives them the simplest, most powerful prayer in history. Then tells a story about persistence.
The Greatest Commandment
'Love God with everything. Love your neighbor as yourself.' The entire law and prophets hang on these two lines.
Caesar's Coin
They try to trap Jesus with a political question. He asks for a coin. 'Give to Caesar what's Caesar's, and to God what's God's.' Mic drop.
Faith, Figs & Loaded Questions
Religious leaders fire trap after trap at Jesus. He answers every one and fires back harder.
Marriage & the Afterlife
The Sadducees think they've got Jesus with a brain teaser about marriage after death. He shuts it down in one sentence.
Whose Son Is the Messiah?
Jesus asks the Pharisees a riddle about David's son. Nobody can answer. He reveals the Messiah is bigger than they imagined.
Signs of the End
On the Mount of Olives, Jesus describes the end of the world — wars, earthquakes, deception. 'Stay ready. You don't know the day.'
