Stay up to date!
From Sunday:
 
Our culture loves to portray Jesus as this mild mannered, gentle teacher who went about doing good and blessing all the little children.  The two events we are going to study this morning present a far different picture of Jesus.  We are now into the second and third day of the Final Week and we are going to see a Jesus who is fired up; one who is truly ticked off; one who responds in anger and judgment to the hypocrisy he finds in the Jewish religion. 

En Agape',
Rev. Michael Weeks
