This eight-session small group Bible study DVD, Life & Ministry of the Messiah, from noted teacher and historian, Ray Vander Laan, is volume three of the 12-part Faith Lessons series. In it, Vander Laan illustrates how Jesus' call to follow him turned the world upside down. Faith Lessons is an in-depth video tour of the buried, distant, or otherwise forgotten places where the stories of the Bible actually happened. From this cultural perspective, teacher and historian Ray Vander Laan challenges long-held Western assumptions about even the most well known Scripture passages and reveals unique insights into the Scriptures' significance for modern believers. The Life & Ministry of the Messiah DVD sessions were filmed on location in Herodion, Masada, Qumran, Krazin/Mount of the Beatitudes, Gamla, Sepphoris, Belvoir, and En Gedi. These illuminating "faith lessons" afford a new understanding of the Bible that will ground your convictions and transform your life. The Faith Lessons video series is ideal for use in small groups, personal and family Bible studies, and adult Sunday school. Individual believers and families will gain vital insights from long-ago times and cultures through this innovative approach to Bible study.
