Ep. 288 – Also Featured In The Cast - Pt. 10

In this final episode of the Also Featured In The Cast series, I reflect on those whose names you may not know but whose roles were essential—both in history and in the story of Jesus. From Mary Magdalene and Joseph of Arimathea to the humble parents of Christ, we explore the lives of those who shaped history and faith in quiet yet profound ways. We also examine the deadly combination of political, military, and religious power in the crucifixion of Jesus, and the stark contrast of those who faithfully cared for Him. At the heart of it, Jesus knows each of us by name, no matter how overlooked or forgotten the world may be.– Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - The Leaders Notebook(00:00:25) - The Life of Hattie McDaniel(00:03:26) - John 4:1-2(00:06:13) - The Life of Herod and Pilate(00:15:24) - Political, Military and Religious Power in the Crucification of Jesus(00:22:22) - The Power of Religious Power(00:31:47) - Also mentioned in the Christ Story(00:34:44) - What Kills People in Crucifixion(00:41:24) - Leader's Notebook
