Jesus spent time with his disciples teaching them to do the things he did, and they learnt. Jesus also intends that we learn to do the same things also. Join David Alley as he reads Luke 9 and then discusses the chapter and these issues.

Jesus raises the dead, nothing is beyond him. In raising the widows son, he does what both Elijah and Elisha did int he old testament, replicating the sign of their miraculous ability. He then helps a Gentile soldier, a most unexpected thing. Both soldier and Gentiles were not appreciated by Israelites.

In Luke 6 Jesus chooses his twelve disciples, preaches the sermon on the plain, and heals on the sabbath.... again. Join David Alley as he reads Luke 6 and then discusses the chapter and these issues.
Jesus tells the disciples to "put out to the deep" which is not only what he said, but a metaphor for where he wants us to go in our spiritual lives. Then the disciples catch a miraculous haul of fish. This is also historical and a metaphor for our lives too, which are supposed to be fruitful. Join David Alley as he reads Luke 5 and then discusses the chapter and these issues.
Jesus visits his own home town and preaches in the synagogue. Reading from Isaiah he makes it plain he is the Messiah, and invokes their wrath.

Join David Alley as he reads Luke 4 and then discusses the chapter and these issues.
This chapter has a geneaology of Jesus that doesn't match the one in Matthew. They both report that Joseph has a different father, apparently.

Join David Alley as he reads Luke 3 and then discusses the chapter and these issues.
The birth of Jesus was announced in a royal fashion as myriads of angels sand and welcomed the King. At the same time the newborn king was born in a cave and placed in a feeding trough. Never did such grand happenings coincide with such down-to-earth ordinariness. Such is our Saviour. Join David Alley as he reads Luke 2 and then discusses the chapter and these issues.

There are two endings to Mark's gospel, the short ending and the long ending. Most Bibles cut off and say something like... "earliest manuscripts do not include the following verses."
