This week we jump forward in the book of Luke to Chapter 7, verses 1-10,the story of the Roman Centurion's faith in Jesus. They discuss the importance of understanding the life and ministry of Jesus verse by verse, contrasting this with the lectionary approach of jumping between scriptures. The episode delves into the Centurion's background, his high status, and his respectful request for Jesus to heal his precious slave without entering his home, demonstrating his understanding of Jewish purity laws and his immense faith in Jesus' authority over death, even at a distance. The hosts emphasize the significance of a Gentile displaying such faith and conclude with a reminder for listeners to love God and be kind to others, followed by Pastor Rocky's sermon titled "Authority."

The sermon for this episode is titled "Authority" and can be found at pondergmc.org/ministries/sermons
