In this episode of The Connection Podcast with Connect Global we explore the reputation of Jesus and the importance of our faith around Easter. We read in the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 16, to discover the significance of Peter's declaration that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, and what this means for us today.
We'll start with the different answers the disciples gave to Jesus when he asked them who people say He is, and what those responses reveal about Jesus' reputation in His time. We'll then discuss the significance of Peter's declaration and what it tells us about Jesus' identity as the Son of God.
From there, we'll explore what it means for Jesus to build his church on the rock of this declaration, and what it means for us to recognize Jesus as the Son of God in our own lives. We'll also discuss the cost of discipleship and what it means for us to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Jesus.
Finally, we tie all of these threads together to explore the importance of our belief around Easter. As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, it's important for us to recognize that his death and resurrection were not just historical events, but a powerful expression of God's love for us and an invitation to follow him as his disciples.
Join us as we explore the reputation of Jesus and the significance of our belief around Easter in "Reputation: Who do you say I am."
