BibleWise Podcast #24: Miracle Stories (54:27)

In our seventh podcast on Mark's gospel we will hear about four dramatic miracle stories. Jesus will illustrate his power over nature, demons, chronic illness, and even death. He has transgressed the boundaries of ritual definitions of clean and unclean by removing those defilements and has centered his attentions on those who live "outside," who have been cast off, the powerless.

BibleWise Podcast #25: The Death of John the Baptist (39:36)

This is our eighth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. In our seventh podcast, we focused on the power of Jesus with four major miracle stories. On the heels of his great success, he goes home only to be rejected by those who knew him best. This is followed by a story in which he commissions the disciples for ministry into which Mark inserts yet another story about the death of John the Baptist. Some think this foreshadows Jesus' own death, yet the similarities and differences will be quickly apparent.

This is our ninth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. Last month we studied Herod's feast that resulted in the death of John the Baptist. This month we will talk about another feast; only this one takes place in the wilderness. The feeding of the 5000 is a story told in all four gospels. It is followed by another remarkable story in which Jesus walks on the water. We'll study what scholars have to say about these two miraculous events.

BibleWise Podcast #27: Unclean Hands and a Gentile Woman (52:16)

This is now our tenth podcast on the gospel of Mark. Last month we studied some of the major miracle stories found in chapter 6. This month the Pharisees will be back and more conflicts can be expected. The issue this time is one of uncleanness. Jesus and the Pharisees will see things differently, and ultimately Jesus will declare that all food is clean. The implications of this, however, will reach far beyond dietary laws.

This is now our eleventh podcast on the Gospel of Mark. Last month after yet another confrontation with the Pharisees, Jesus left Judea and entered into Gentile territory. He is still there. Whether or not Jesus intended to include the Gentiles in his ministry, he has been teaching and healing them now. In fact, several stories this month will give us a sense of déjà vu and the lessons will be ever expanding.

BibleWise Podcast #29: What Kind of Messiah? (54:34)

This is our twelfth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. We ended last month with a healing of blindness that functioned as a transition story because it was also symbolic for the beginning of this new section that will last all the way through chapter 10. We could entitle this section: "On the way; the Meaning of discipleship." From now on we will see fewer mighty works and a greater emphasis on teaching, most of which will now be done privately with the disciples.

BibleWise Podcast #30: A Failed Exorcism and True Greatness (46:52)

This is now our thirteenth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. We ended last month's with that amazing mountaintop experience of the Transfiguration where select disciples were given a glimpse of Jesus' future glory. But, as it so often happens, as they descended from the mountain, awed by what they had seen, they were jolted back to reality by the events occurring on the ground. In all three of the synoptic gospels, this is the story that follows the transfiguration; surely, this is quite intentional.

BibleWise Podcast #31: Marriage, Divorce, and Children (41:37)

This is now our fourteenth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. Last month following the Transfiguration, Jesus and his disciples interrupted a tense argument between the scribes and the other disciples over their inability to exorcise a demon from a young boy. This was followed by another passion prediction and an equally inane response by the disciples. Jesus, then, began to warn them about doing anything that would cause another to sin. This month we will hear warnings about behavior that might result in their own sins and more lessons on discipleship.

This is now our fifteenth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. Last month we focused on teachings that Jesus was giving to his disciples. He began with not causing others to sin, then addressed things they might be doing to cause themselves to sin. From this he continued with teachings about the basic aspects of life; he started with marriage and children. This month we will continue with the topic of possessions. The teaching is illustrated by anencounter with an earnest young man.

BibleWise Podcast #33: Bartimaeus and Jesus' Triumphal Entry in Jerusalem (33:12)

Two major events occur in this podcast. The first involves Jesus' encounter with Bartimaeus, who is blind and calls out for healing. This is the last healing recorded by Mark. That it is a healing of blindness is quite noteworthy. It again ties in to the spiritual blindness that the disciples have been demonstrating all along. The second involves Jesus' triumphal entry in Jerusalem. Riding on a colt and acclaimed by all those present, Jesus finally appears to be embracing his messianic status.

BibleWise Podcast #34: Cursing the Fig Tree and Cleansing the Temple (35:42)

This is our seventeenth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. It will include Jesus' activities on his second day in Jerusalem before the Passover. It contains one of the most enigmatic stories in which Jesus supposedly "curses" a fig tree. Like several others, the story is interrupted by another story involving the temple. It appears, then, that this is another one of Mark's "sandwiched" stories.

This is our eighteenth podcast on the gospel of Mark. Jesus is now in Jerusalem, going back to Bethany each evening. The narrative slows way down at this point; Mark describes each day in detail allowing the tension to build towards its climax. This will be Jesus' third day in Jerusalem. The text doesn't say, but we presume it is again early in the morning.

This is our nineteenth podcast on the Gospel of Mark. We are still on day three in Jerusalem. Jesus was at the temple in the midst of teaching about the kingdom of God when the authorities approached him. It is safe to say that this was not a friendly visit. Mark has four incidents involving some sort of teaching. Scholars say these encounters follow the question and answer series that is part of the liturgy used at a Passover meal.

Now he will focus on the bigger picture, on the temple in relation to the end of the world. At this point, he is talking to his disciples, which bring us to chapter 13.

BibleWise Podcast #38: Anointing, Betrayal, and the Last Supper (38:02)

This is now our twenty-first podcast on the Gospel of Mark. Chapter fourteen begins the story of Jesus' arrest, trial, and crucifixion. Known as the Passion of Christ, this narrative makes up almost a third of the Gospel leaving some to comment that Mark is really a passion story with a lengthy introduction. While that might be overstating things, it is obvious that Mark intended to give a fuller account of Jesus' last days.

This is our twenty-second podcast on the Gospel of Mark. Jesus and his disciples have finished eating the Passover meal and will go up to the Mount of Olives. There, in the dead of night, Jesus will wrestle alone, because his disciples will disappoint again and again. As before, Mark continues his technique of sandwiching one story into another. This time it is the Last Supper that is framed by two predictions of betrayal by the disciples.

This is our twenty-third podcast on the Gospel of Mark. Jesus has been arrested and will now face the religious authorities. There will be a trial, but we already know the outcome because he has predicted it on several occasions. The authorities will reject Jesus and he will be killed. But at the very same time Jesus is facing his accusers, there will be another trial – outside in the courtyard.

BibleWise Podcast #41: Jesus Stands Before Pilate (36:56)

This is our twenty-fourth podcast on the gospel of Mark. Last month Jesus stood before the Sanhedrin and was condemned to death. Lacking the authority to carry out such a sentence, the religious authorities set out for Pilate's palace to, essentially, get him to ratify their decision. Clearly, Pilate would have little interest in a religious dispute, so they knew they would have to come up with a charge that would be of interest to the Roman government.

He was buried, not by his own disciples, but by Joseph of Arimathea, a member of the Council, who placed him in an unused tomb. All of Jesus' male disciples had long fled the scene. Yet, some of the women disciples had stayed and were able to watch from a distance. They will be the first to confirm that, indeed, Jesus had been buried.

Elijah and Elisha by Mary Jane Chaignot and Genelle Austin-Lett

In 2006, Mary Jane Chaignot and Genelle Austin-Lett researched the lives of Elijah and Elisha for a Bible seminar and wrote a play about these two great prophets.

BibleWise Podcast #17: Elijah and Elisha (57:52)

The setting of the play is an all-girls seminary where two students have written a play about the lives of Elijah and Elisha for a final project in their Prophets class. The students meet at the "SHEBREWS CAFÉ" on campus to run lines. They also talk about the staging of the play as they practice.

 

Genelle plays Elijah and Mary Jane plays Elisha. The material in the script is accurate in terms of the background, but both women have taken some license on the staging. Dick Davenport introduces the play.
