Listen "‘Who do you say that I am?’ Jesus and our versions of ourselves"
Episode Synopsis
Why call Jesus names he never used of himself? Kings, and Messiahs, and Lords, are people distant from us, with whom we have little common ground. But the Son of Man is a Human One who suffers with everyone else who suffers; his divine power works totally unlike and in opposition to the ways of Kings, Messiahs, and Lords, the worldly structures and powers of death.
