    Episode 1 - Introduction (from the series: Just The Stuff That Jesus Said)

    Who was Jesus? What was his message? Is it possible to remove the religious, political and other man-made layers that have been added to the story of Jesus? Is it possible to cut through all the clutter and noise and get to the core of Jesus’ ministry and message? We are certainly going to do our best. Whether you’re a Christian, an atheist, agnostic, or follower of a faith other than Christianity, or maybe your just curious about who Jesus was and what he had to say, then this podcast is for you. There is no proselyting or advocacy of any particular Christian denomination or faith group. You don’t have to join anything or give your money. This is simply an attempt to get back to the message of Jesus and nothing else. We will primarily be using a chronological harmony of the four gospels. Occasionally we may use other parts of the bible for context or for additional material that refers to Jesus. This podcast series is not a popular survey of the four gospels. It’s about what Jesus taught, the example Jesus lived and the practical application that has for our lives. Although this first episode will give some background information about Jesus and the Gospels, we’ll be primarily concentrating on the text and its meaning. Jesus didn’t come to found the Christian religion. He came to introduce us to the kingdom of God and die for our sins so all people could have access to eternal life.
