Jesus' Last Night Right mouse click here to download as a MP3 audio file G'day and welcome to Partake! We are now on day 21 of our series "Glimpses", looking at the story of the Bible in 30 days, from the time of creation through to the time of the fullness of redemption! Last time we looked at Jesus at prayer. Today we look at the events of his last night, before his death. In Luke 22, we come to Jesus' last night before He goes to death on the cross. It's the time for the Feast of Passover! Jerusalem was filled with people come to celebrate this great event! Passover was a time to commemorate the deliverance of Israel from Egypt, and it was a time for remembering and rejoicing with families (Exodus 11-12). 1. Plans of His enemies In Luke 22v1-6, we read that Jesus' enemies plotted to kill him (Luke 22v2) and arranged for Judas to betray him (Luke 22v3). Of course, satan is involved, just as he was at the beginning of time and his purpose was to destroy Jesus (Luke 22v3, Luke 22v31). What about Judas though? Judas was motivated by greed, energized by satan and willing to betray Jesus for money (John 13v2, 27). Judas was never a true believer because his sins had never been cleansed by the Lord (John 13v10-11), therefore he had never truly believed or received eternal life (John 6v64-71). And while all this is going on, Jesus is still in perfect control. All the elements in the plot conspiring against Jesus had been allowed for. Remember, Jesus had been talking to God the Father! The death of Jesus was no accident! 2. Jesus Plans In accordance with the Mosaic covenant, the people of Israel were expected to remove all yeast from their houses (Ex.12v15) as a reminder that their ancestors left Egypt in a hurry and had to eat bread without yeast on their travels to the promised land. In Luke 12v1, Jesus had warned his disciples about the "yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy". In other words, the religious leaders had cleansed their houses but not their hearts. The last thing the religious leaders wanted was a messianic uprising during Passover (Luke 19v11). They would have heard the crowds talking up Jesus Christ as the messiah, particularly after the events of the previous week when Jesus entered Jerusalem!. 3. Jesus Prepares (Luke 22v7-23) Reading Luke 22v7, 13 - Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread arrived, when the Passover lamb is sacrificed. Jesus sent Peter and John ahead and said, "Go and prepare the Passover meal, so we can eat it together." The disciples went off to the city and found everything just as Jesus had said, and they prepared the Passover meal there. Disciples needed a room within Jerusalem itself, and also required food - a lamb, bread, bitter herbs and wine. 4. Jesus initiates the New Covenant (Luke 22v14-23) - When the time came, Jesus and the apostles sat down together at the table. Jesus said, "I have been very eager to eat this Passover meal with you before my suffering begins. For I tell you now that I won't eat this meal again until its meaning is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God." Then he took a cup of wine and gave thanks to God for it. Then he said, "Take this and share it among yourselves. For I will not drink wine again until the Kingdom of God has come." He took some bread and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, "This is my body, which is given for you. Do this to remember me." After supper he took another cup of wine and said, "This cup is the new covenant between God and his people-an agreement confirmed with my blood, which is poured out as a sacrifice for you. The Passover meal contains historical and theological symbolism regarding the death of Jesus. We will come to see what those are later on in the series, but suffice to say at this point, it is why this meal is the model for the central act of Christian worship, which is Holy Communion. Opening Prayer First cup of wine and a dish of herbs and sauce. Story of the Passover was recited. Psalm 113 was sung Second cup of wine Prayer of Grace Main course of roast lamb with unleavened bread and bitter herbs A further prayer Third cup of wine. Psalm 114 to 118 were then sung. Fourth cup of wine. 5. Jesus Serves Jesus washes the disciples' feet (John 13v1-17) Reading from John 13v1-5 - Before the Passover celebration, Jesus knew that his hour had come to leave this world and return to his Father. He had loved his disciples during his ministry on earth, and now he loved them to the very end. It was time for supper, and the devil had already prompted Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus. Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God. So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples' feet, drying them with the towel he had around him. As part of the custom of the day, a servant or slave usually undertook foot washing of guests. Since none of the disciples had done this, Jesus Himself undertakes the task (John 13v4-5). Peter, recalcitrant and resistant as always, objects (John 13v6,8 ). Peter learns that only those cleansed by Jesus and trusting in Him fully, can be a part of the kingdom (John 13v7, 9). Jesus' rising to serve symbolizes His coming to serve - that was his mission we talked about earlier in the series! It was a mission of great love and service! When he took off his cloak, this symbolizes the taking off of His glory when He became human. As he girded Himself with a towel, symbolizes his taking on human flesh at his birth. And, as the water cleansed the feet, so Jesus death and blood cleanses from sin. When he finished cleaning, he returned to where he was sitting and sat down after finishing this act of service. 6. Jesus Speaks (Luke 22v24-38) Reading Luke 22v 24-27: Then they began to argue among themselves about who would be the greatest among them. Jesus told them, "In this world the kings and great men lord it over their people, yet they are called ‘friends of the people.' But among you it will be different. Those who are the greatest among you should take the lowest rank, and the leader should be like a servant. Who is more important, the one who sits at the table or the one who serves? The one who sits at the table, of course. But not here! For I am among you as one who serves. Here Jesus tells his disciples that they are the new leaders and thereforet they will judge the tribes of Israel! That in doing so, they are to serve everyone gladly, love everyone even those that they tested and persecute them! This is a radical new thing Jesus is telling his disciples - their actions are to back up their claims, just as Jesus' actions confirm his own claims! In so doing, Jesus replaces the old leaders of God with his own people. Tomorrow we look at that day in history - the day Jesus, the God-man, died. Thank you!

What happens when you move from knowing about God to knowing His ways? In this message, Pastor John Lindell explores how Moses developed a deep friendship with God by spending time in His presence. When you know God's ways, it leads to friendship, favor, and the faith to boldly ask for big things.
Notes
Verse by verse study through the book of Hosea Chapter Eight and Verse Seven
In this deep and lively conversation, Patrick and Jonah continue their journey through Paul's Letter to the Ephesians, entering chapter 6 — the passage addressing children, parents, and the challenge of obedience. Together they explore the profound tension and mystery in Paul's words about submission, obedience, and how they can easily be misused or distorted into oppressive tools. At the same time, they consider how obedience can be transformed and transfigured through Christ into a liberating path of love, discernment, and freedom.Drawing on personal experiences as fathers and priests, Patrick and Jonah reflect on moments of healthy authority, rightful correction, and also times when children (and all of us) must discern when voices are not “in the Lord.” The discussion expands into themes of generational inheritance, the role of parents in blessing the earth, and the deeper spiritual call to hear and follow the true voice of God — which may come through others but ultimately lives in the listening heart.Themes DiscussedIntroduction to Ephesians 6: The closing exhortations before the “armor of God” passage.The continuity of the theme of submission and ordering oneself rightly — in families, communities, and before Christ.The radical equality in Paul's new vision: children, wives, and bondservants are all addressed directly as fellow members of Christ's body.The nuanced meaning of obedience “in the Lord” — not blind rule-following, but discerning and heeding true words of life.Parenting experiences: moments of both failure and grace in bringing up children in the “instruction of the Lord.”The danger of obedience distorted into tyranny and the church's historical complicity in oppression.The role of listening (shema) in Jewish and Christian traditions — as deeply connected to the will and the path of freedom.Children (and all of us) learning to test the spirits and to recognize what is truly good and true.Reflections on generational burdens and blessings — breaking patterns to offer freedom to the next generation.The Prodigal Son as a lens for parenting adult children and trusting the Lord of destiny.Key ScriptureEphesians 6:1-4 — Children, obey your parents in the Lord…John 8:12 — I am the light of the world…The Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4) — Hear, O Israel…Luke 15: The Prodigal Son — referenced as a parable of trust and freedom.Closing ThoughtsPatrick and Jonah close with wonder at the figure of Christ Jesus as the one who listens and obeys the Father perfectly — revealing true obedience as something rooted in love, freedom, and the pursuit of the good and true. This vision offers a path beyond oppressive systems into the joyful responsibility of becoming listeners and doers of the Word.Next episode will continue into the more challenging and provocative passage regarding bondservants and masters, exploring the radical implications of Paul's message for unjust systems and relationships.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

You Know It Is the Lord! | John 21:1-14 | Trinity Lutheran Church Have you ever had a moment when God's promises became unmistakably clear? In John 21:1-14, the disciples experience this very clarity. Initially, they don't recognize the figure on the shore—until He speaks and His promise is fulfilled. They've witnessed this before: a night of fruitless fishing, then a simple command from Jesus, and suddenly their nets overflow. "It is the Lord!" proclaims John, recognizing Jesus by His word that accomplishes exactly what He promises. Today, we hear that same powerful word, given so that "you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name" (John 20:31). Listen and believe—it truly is the Lord! ✨ Key Takeaways: Jesus fulfills His promises in unexpected ways. Recognizing Jesus comes through hearing His Word. God's Word is powerful, creating faith and life.

Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.16 - A Hundred Thousand Angels. In this episode, we discuss a wide range of topics, starting with the shocking reveal at the end about the possible return of Claire and Jamie's deceased daughter, Faith. We debate the implications of this twist and speculate on the potential directions the story could go in season 8. We also chat the tender scene between Claire and John, Rollo, Bree and Roger, the complex relationship between Jamie, William, and Lord John, and Jamie's reluctance to fully apologize. Also in this episode: The conversation between Jamie and William about William's mother was handled delicately, with Jamie choosing his words carefully to avoid upsetting William further after the loss of his sister. The scenes involving Jane's death and William's inability to save her were powerful, highlighting the harsh realities of the time period. Lord John's comedic relief and unwavering support for William were highlights, showcasing his role as a father figure. The reveal about Faith at the end of the episode has divided fans, with some excited by the potential for magical realism, while others are concerned it may detract from the core relationships and historical elements of the show. The pregnancy reveal for Rachel and Ian's reaction to his dog Rollo's death were emotional moments that balanced the more fantastical elements. The conversation between Brianna and her biological father, Brian, was a poignant exploration of their complex relationship and the importance of family. The overall episode balanced moments of joy, sorrow, and uncertainty, setting the stage for a potentially bold and unconventional final season of Outlander.

Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.15 - Written In My Own Hearts Blood. In this episode, we discuss Jamie's dramatic actions to protect Claire after she is accidentally shot, the resolution of the storylines involving William, Lord John, and Ian, as well as the continued mystery surrounding Mandy, the "creepy weird kid". We also analyze the emotional scenes between Jamie and Claire, praising the strong performances and cinematography. Additionally, we touch on the appearance of Frank's book, speculating on its significance, and the overall momentum building towards the season finale. Also in this episode: There was a lot of discussion about the character Mandy, the "creepy, weird kid", and how her behavior contrasted with the main characters. The montage at the beginning of the episode, featuring scenes from past seasons, was praised as a great way to set the tone and revisit key moments. The rescue scene for William involving Lord John and Ian was considered a bit basic, with suggestions it could have been more tense and dramatic. The relationship and interactions between Buck, Roger, and their "family" were highlighted as strong moments in the episode. The final scene with Jamie praying over the injured Claire was praised for the lack of music, creating a raw and authentic feeling. There was discussion about the potential fate of the character Jane, with the hosts speculating she may not survive the season. We commented on the strong performances, particularly from Sam Heughan as Jamie, and the effective use of lighting and cinematography in key scenes. There was anticipation about the momentum and plot threads heading into the season finale, including Claire's surgery, Jamie's resignation, and the rescue of Jane.

Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.14 - Ye Dinna Get Used To It. In this episode, we praise Diana Gabaldon's handling of the writing, discuss the character development, particularly highlighting Lord John Gray's encounters and the relationship between William and Jane. We also touch on the pacing of the episode, noting that while it may have felt like "heavy lifting" to set up future events, Gabaldon executed it with levity and care. We also debate cheese and mold, share our theories and predictions about where the story might be headed, particularly in regards to the ongoing conflict with the British. Also in this episode: Praise for Diana Gabaldon's writing: this episode required a lot of "heavy lifting" to set up future plot points, but they praise Gabaldon's execution, noting she was able to do so with levity and care. Analysis of Lord John Gray's character: Lord John's encounters with various people from his past, and how this is impacting his emotional state and allegiances, comparing it to listening to "tortured poets." Appreciation for the Jane-William dynamic: the interesting relationship between Jane and William, noting how Jane serves as a foil to William's attempts to redefine himself after learning Jamie is his biological father. Speculation on Jane's fate: The hosts theorize that Jane's bold actions, such as killing a British captain, will likely lead to her demise by the season's end, and how this will profoundly impact William. Critique of the Rob Cameron storyline: boredom with this storyline, feeling it was "shoehorned in" just to get Bree back to the 18th century, and lacking a sense of urgency. Appreciation for the Ian-Rachel scene: thel ighting and character dynamics in the scene where Ian teaches Rachel how to do war paint, noting the symbolic significance of the candles behind them.

Mary & Blake discuss everything YOU had say about to Outlander episode 7.13 - Hello Goodbye. In this episode, we discuss overall enjoyment, then dive into listener feedback covering diverse perspectives - praise for character badassery, criticism of a "cringy" love scene, and mixed reactions to wedding scenes. Discussing historical context and moral complexities of certain characters, we also recount Mary's humorous birthing class anecdote highlighting Blake's struggles. Key topics include pacing, cohesion, adaptation challenges, and Mary's clever hot chocolate analogy. Plus we have a little love for The Leftovers. Also in this episode: We discuss the unique and endearing relationship between characters Ian and Rachel. Some listeners expressed discomfort or criticism around certain storylines, such as the length and believability of the Ian and Rachel wedding night scene, as well as confusion over the resolution of the Jerry McKenzie storyline for show-only viewers. The historical context and moral complexities surrounding characters like Lord John and William, who were slave owners, acknowledging the importance of understanding the time period. Mary shared a humorous personal anecdote about attending a birthing class with Blake, highlighting the awkward and uncomfortable moments they experienced. Listeners provided feedback on the cohesion and pacing of the episode, with some feeling it was more scattered compared to previous episodes with interwoven plotlines. We're encouraged to read the novella "A Leaf on the Wind of All Hollows" to better understand the Roger and his father storyline, and mentioned a two-part study on the topic available on their YouTube channel. We expressed hope for better cohesion and more satisfying storytelling in future episodes, while also discussing the importance of letting some mysteries remain unsolved, referencing the theme song from the show "The Leftovers." The podcast concluded with a playful reference to the song "Let the Mystery Be" by Iris Dement, emphasizing the theme of mystery and intrigue in Outlander.

The discussion around Lord John Gray's character development is a major focus.

Mary & Blake discuss everything YOU had say about to Outlander episode 7.11 - A Hundredweight Of Stones. In this episode, we discuss Claire and Lord John's intimate encounter, Ian and Rachel's relationship, Brianna confronting Rob Cameron, and the emotional reunion between Jamie and Claire. Listeners share praise for strong performances and character-driven moments, while also voicing critiques about pacing and authenticity of certain plot points. Also in this episode: The episode received overwhelmingly positive reviews, with many listeners giving it 5+ kilt ratings, indicating it was one of the best episodes of the series. Viewers praised the strong character development and emotional performances, particularly from Caitriona Balfe as Claire and David Berry as Lord John Gray. The intimate scene between Claire and Lord John Gray was divisive, with some feeling it happened too quickly and didn't feel earned, while others appreciated the raw, honest portrayal of their grief. Viewers were invested in the storylines of Ian and Rachel, as well as Roger and Buck, and wanted to see those narratives developed further. The reveal that Jemmy may not have traveled through the stones was a shocking twist that left listeners intrigued and concerned for Brianna's family. Listeners were thrilled by Jamie's dramatic return and William's discovery of his true paternity, praising the powerful acting and emotional impact. Some felt the Rob Cameron storyline was underdeveloped and lost momentum compared to the other major plot points. Listeners appreciated the artistic direction and cinematography, particularly in scenes like Ian's conversation with Rachel.

Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.11 - A Hundredweight Of Stones. In this episode, we discuss key moments like Claire's marriage to Lord John, Bree's frying pan heroics, and William learning Jamie is his father. We praise character-driven scenes, like Lord John's "white stag" speech, while critiquing rushed pacing. Speculation swirls around Captain Richardson's offer to Claire to spy on her husband, potentially setting up a season-ending cliffhanger. Also in this episode: Claire marries Lord John Grey and they consummate the marriage, though the show does not depict the intimate details. This raises questions about the impact on Claire's relationship with Jamie. Roger and Buck continue their search for Roger's father, with Roger providing historical context about his father's wartime experiences. However, the dialogue feels a bit expository at times. Bree demonstrates her resourcefulness and bravery by using a frying pan to defend herself, echoing the "Rapunzel" fairytale. This is a standout moment that the hosts praise. At Lord John's party, the reveal that William is Jamie's son creates a dramatic confrontation, with William angrily rejecting Lord John. This sets up further conflict to come. The episode's title "A Hundredweight of Stones" is seen as an apt metaphor for the emotional burdens and weight the characters are carrying, though the show doesn't always give these moments enough time to breathe. Director Lisa Clarke and writer Sarah H. Haught bring their own styles to the episode, with mixed results in terms of pacing and character development. Lord John's poignant "white stag" speech, reflecting on the fleeting nature of love and happiness, is highlighted as a powerful, character-defining moment. We are divided on the writing choice to have Lord John bluntly reveal to William that Jamie is his father, seeing it as either an organic character moment or a forced plot device. Speculation arises that Captain Richardson's offer to Claire to spy could set up a major season-ending cliffhanger, separating Claire and Jamie once again.

Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.10 - Brotherly Love. In this episode, we discuss the powerful opening scene, key plot points, and character moments, including Ian, Claire, and Roger's storylines. We praise the performances, particularly David Berry as Lord John Grey, and debate Claire's decision to accept Lord John's proposal. We also speculate about the implications of Roger's father potentially appearing in the past, and the laughable end result of Arch Bug... Also in this episode: The episode was very eventful, with many familiar faces and big things happening, including hellos, goodbyes, and surprises. The opening scene with Ian senior was praised as a beautifully written, directed, and acted moment that set the emotional tone for the episode. The pacing of the episode was criticized as feeling rushed, with Claire jumping into spy activities and surgery very quickly after arriving in Philadelphia. The Arch Bug storyline was considered poorly constructed and executed, with the villain's actions and motivations lacking coherence. The introduction of Dougal and the potential time travel implications with Roger's father were intriguing plot points that generated discussion. Rachel's manner of speaking, with her use of "thee" and "thy," was noted as taking some viewers out of the immersion, despite being historically accurate. Lord John Gray's quick thinking and proposal to Claire were seen as well-executed moments that advanced the plot. The emotional impact of Claire's grief and the flashbacks to her memories with Jamie were praised as powerful and authentic.

Mary & Blake discuss everything YOU had say about to Outlander episode 7.09 - Unfinished Business. In this episode, listeners share feedback on the return to Scotland, new actress as Jenny, pacing, and book-to-show changes. The hosts engage in lively discussions, sometimes playfully disagreeing. Plus we discuss the mystery about Midwestern "salads." Also in this episode: There were mixed opinions on the new actress playing Jenny, with some feeling she was a softer version of the character, while others thought she did a good job. Many listeners enjoyed the emotional reunion scenes between the Murrays, especially the conversations between young Ian and his parents. Some viewers found the reason for Claire leaving Scotland to go to America (to help Lord John's nephew) to be unconvincing or not well explained. There were comments about the pacing feeling a bit off, with the show moving quickly from Scotland to the next location. Listeners had differing opinions on Roger's internal monologues, with some finding them abrupt and unnecessary. The surprise appearances at the door, particularly Brian Fraser opening for Roger, were highlights for many viewers. There was a humorous discussion about the "salads" that are common in the Midwest, which are not actually salads but more like gelatin and fruit dishes.
