    Jesus Washes Feet and Gives a New Commandment | S4 E10

    Jesus has been saying, "My hour has not yet come." Today he'll say, "My hour has arrived." It is Holy Thursday, and on this great and ominous night filled with huge moments in salvation history. The first thing he chooses to do is wash the feet of his apostles. Now, why did he do that? And why is it significant that Judas left right after he did that? And what does it mean for us when washing feet is no longer quite the thing it apparently was back then? We'll find out this week on The Extraordinary Story. Learn More The Extraordinary Story is a podcast about the life of Jesus Christ, who entered the maze of our world to transform it into a path to Him, today and always. The Extraordinary Story is produced by Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas, and is written and hosted by Tom Hoopes.

    Judas vs. Mary on Spy Wednesday

    It's Wednesday of Holy Week, the day before the big days. The chief priests hold a special meeting. They want to find a way to arrest Jesus without alarming the crowds of people in Jerusalem. It's hard because Jesus knows their plans and is steering clear. They're stuck and they can't find a way. And then there's a knock on the door and a man is ushered into the room. He asks, how much will you give me if I hand him over to you? We will review why Judas would want to betray his master, and it's important that we do, because it's the same reason you and I may want to betray him also.

    The Sheep, the Goats, and David

    The veil drops and we see the Kingdom of Christ for what it is. Angels and thrones and icons all around us. And we ourselves for what we are. Either sheep seeing the true worth of our neighbor or goats. We also get to see some sweet payback when Jesus, tired of the Pharisees trying to trap him, verbally traps them instead.  Learn More The Extraordinary Story is a podcast about the life of Jesus Christ, who entered the maze of our world to transform it into a path to Him, today and always.

    Cursed Fig Trees and Fruitful Soil: God's "Nature Logic" | S4 E3

    We return to Jerusalem on the morning after Jesus's triumphal entry as he curses a fig tree. We'll learn why he did such a strange thing, why he insisted to Greeks that he himself was a grain of wheat, and what all of this reveals about the Garden of Eden - and ourselves. This episode is all about the “nature logic” of the Gospel, and the way the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is woven into the very fabric of the cosmos. In this episode You have to die before you can live. Jesus' paradoxical teaching about the "grain of wheat" may seem strange at first, but as St. Cyril of Alexandria, Pope Benedict XVI, and Larry Chapp point out, it's written all over the natural world for us to see plainly, foreshadowing the redemptive suffering of Jesus on the cross and echoing the eternal life and love of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. 00:00 Introduction 01:02 Reading of Matthew 18: Jesus Curses the Fig Tree 01:41 Why is Jesus hungry? 02:31 The importance of a fig tree in the Gospel 03:42 God is working to restore paradise for all creation 04:41 The Garden of Eden and gardens in the Gospels 07:12 God is the gardener of salvation history. Examples in the Old Testament 08:27 Jesus’ action is foreshadowed by the prophet Ezekiel 09:44 It was “not the season for figs” but God expects fruit anyway 10:11 Jesus teaches about the “dying seed” 12:19 St. Cyril of Alexandria and the “analogy of nature” 13:21 Cardinal Ratzinger explains the “mystery of the dying grain” 14:41 Larry Chap and the mystery of redemptive suffering 15:11 Reading of John 12 - “He who loses his life will save it” 16:43 Suffering on earth is an image of the inner life of the Trinity 17:17 Jesus “leaned obedience through what he suffered” 19:24 The Fathers of the Church took the Gospel’s “nature logic” seriously 20:43 St. Clement of Alexandria: The Word of God is the pruning knife of the soul 22:20 Reading of Luke 13: Jesus’ parable of the master’s vineyard 23:46 Application of the parable 24:19 Conclusion Learn More For more content from Benedictine College, visit media.benedictine.edu The Extraordinary Story is a podcast about the life of Jesus Christ, who entered the maze of our world to transform it into a path to Him, today and always.
