Reflections: Yeshua's Band of Disciples and Us
September 15th, 2010 | Add a Comment
I ask a question in chapter one worth reflecting on. The gospels are nothing if not resources for living a higher life. They raise a million questions about life here and now. I will raise some in the category "Applying the Gospels."
What is Yeshua planning to do with the band of disciples he is gathering?
You could spend an entire day reading and thinking about this question. It would make a great discussion with a group. What sort of things would you look for reading the gospels with this question in mind? Try it and see what sorts of things you come up with.
