    Episode 9: Beyond The Breakwater, Who is A.L.I.C.E.?

    Beyond the Breakwater A.L.I.C.E.

Who is A.L.I.C.E. and how does that impact our approach to charity? How can we recognize the different needs of those in poverty, A.L.I.C.E., and those beyond A.L.I.C.E. so that our efforts to serve are meeting their needs and not our own? What do we currently do that we might need to change in order to serve our neighbors?

    Episode 7: Raising Lazarus From the Dead (John 11: 1-45)

    The Seven Signs of Christ in John's Gospel "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name." –John 20:31 The Seventh Sign:  Raising Lazarus From the Dead (John 11:1-45) Jesus did not rush to heal Lazarus when he was ill – this last sign would be greater than the ones that had come before. The signs had now become so clear and far-reaching that the plot to kill Jesus reaches its crescendo – it even includes the plot to kill Lazarus to lessen the sign. Martha's initial comfort came from the promised resurrection on the last day. The resurrection of Lazarus further strengthens that confidence and the assurance that the final resurrection is by the grace and power of Jesus Christ.

    Episode 6: Jesus Heals the Man Born Blind (John 9: 1-40)

    The Seven Signs of Christ in John's Gospel "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name." –John 20:31 The Sixth Sign: Jesus Heals the Man Born Blind (John 9:1-40) Although sin is the foundation cause of all tragedy and trials in this life, there is not always a specific sin that leads to a particular struggle.  Even after the healing, there are those who refuse to believe in Jesus or even acknowledge the miracles He performed.  The blind see (literally and figuratively) and those who can see are blind and do not see (figuratively).

    Episode 5: The Fifth Sign: Walking on Water (John 6:16-21)

    The Seven Signs of Christ in John's Gospel "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name." –John 20:31 The Fifth Sign: Walking on Water (John 6:16-21)          The darkness is both literal and figurative as the disciples still do not fully understand who Jesus is.          The disciples' fear comes from a lack of control. Jesus demonstrates who  is always and only in control.          The walking on water would have brought to mind Moses and the parting of the Red Sea.         Jesus not only has the power to walk on water, but as soon as He gets into the boat, the waters calm so they can immediately get to the other side.

    Episode 4: The Fourth Sign: Feeding the 5,000 (John 6:1-15)

    The Seven Signs of Christ in John's Gospel "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name."  –John 20:31 The Fourth Sign: Feeding the 5,000 (John 6:1-15) "Testing" is not to see if Philip got it right, but to strengthen his faith (see the purpose of John's Gospel in John 20:31)  The usual human approaches made the issue seem impossible  Jesus does big things with very little  The reason Jesus has started small is seen in the people's response, wanting to make Him king

    Episode 3:The Third Sign: Healing a Paralyzed Man (John 5:1-15)

    The Seven Signs of Christ in John's Gospel "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name." –John 20:31   The Third Sign: Healing a Paralyzed Man (John 5:1-15) 38 years of paralysis of body also led to paralysis of motivation The healing is once again by the power of Jesus' words (5:8-9) Like the first two signs, word only gets out about what has happened by the testimony of one or  few witnesses (5:15)

    Episode 2: The Second Sign: Healing the Official's Son (John 4:46-54)

    The Seven Signs of Christ in John's Gospel "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name." –John 20:31 The Second Sign: Healing the Official's Son (John 4:46-54)   Jesus' reputation inspired the father to go 20 miles away up 3600 ft in elevation Jesus' words again have power (John 4:50, 53) Still a "small scale" miracle – not many were direct witnesses, but believed the testimony of the father.

    Episode 1: The First Sign: Water Into Wine (John 2:1-11)

    The Seven Signs of Christ in John's Gospel "These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name."  - John 20:31 The First Sign: Water into Wine (John 2:1-11) It is not yet time for the full revelation of Jesus' identity Mary's instruction to do whatever Jesus says indicates power in Jesus' words (See John 1:1-18) The changing of water into wine "manifested (made known) his glory"
