Day 44 of Immerse: The Daily Bible Reading Experience - Jesus' Teachings and MiraclesIn this episode of Immerse: The Daily Bible Reading Experience, we explore several key moments in Jesus’ ministry. Jesus begins by predicting his suffering, death, and resurrection, eliciting a strong reaction from Peter. He shares essential teachings with his disciples and the crowds, emphasizing self-denial, the value of one's soul, faith, and the inclusivity of his mission. We witness the Transfiguration on a high mountain, where Jesus is transformed and converses with Moses and Elijah. The episode also recounts the healing of a boy possessed by an evil spirit, Jesus’ teachings on divorce, the importance of welcoming children, and the challenge posed by wealth in inheriting eternal life. As Jesus and his disciples journey towards Jerusalem, he foretells his betrayal and suffering. The episode concludes with the healing of the blind beggar, Bartimaeus, highlighting Jesus' compassion and power to restore sight through faith.00:00 Introduction and Day 44 Announcement00:03 Jesus Foretells His Suffering and Resurrection01:41 The Transfiguration of Jesus03:47 Healing of a Boy with an Evil Spirit06:25 Teachings on Humility and Sin08:52 Jesus on Divorce and Blessing the Children10:53 The Rich Man and the Kingdom of God13:28 Jesus Predicts His Death a Third Time14:13 Request of James and John15:48 Healing of Blind Bartimaeus16:55 Conclusion and FarewellImmerse contains the full text of the New Living Translation with brief introductions to each book.
