Ever felt a longing for belonging and wondered about the essence of discipleship in the modern world? We at Central can help navigate that path as we unravel the concept of discipleship and following Jesus. We foster a sense of community for all, irrespective of age or background, especially in a world where isolation and depression are on the rise. Let's journey together, exploring the first commandment in the Bible and its relevance in our lives.
Our journey takes us from the bustling streets of the ancient city Sothopolis to the quaint village of Betsida, where Jesus recruited his disciples. Tune in as we discuss the importance of the synagogue in the Galilee region and the unconventional methods employed by the rabbis to bring the Torah to life. We'll also explore Betsey Fair and Bet Midrash, spaces for learning Torah, and the concept of Tal Medim - the disciples of a rabbi. Did you know Jesus had his own group of Tal Medim from the small fishing village of Bethsaida?
In our final act, we discuss Jesus' unorthodox selection of disciples and how, through the power of the Spirit, God plans to change the world through us. Learn how to grow closer to Jesus, to read the Bible, to pray, to build relationships, and to confront others. Remember, despite our imperfections, Jesus has chosen us, and we are in good company. Join us as we embrace our roles as disciples and allow ourselves to be shaped by His teachings. Now, are you ready to embark on this transformative journey?
