The Setup

Okay, let's set the stage. We're in the thick of Jesus' ministry. He's been dropping wisdom, healing people left and right, and straight-up changing lives. The disciples? They're kind of like his hype squad, following him everywhere.

At this point, Jesus and his crew are heading to Jerusalem. It's a big deal because things are heating up with religious leaders who aren't exactly on Team Jesus. The disciples are pumped but also kind of confused about what's coming next.
