In Israel's Mission---part of the That the World May Know video Bible study series---author and Bible teacher Ray Vander Laan takes you on a journey through Israel to explore what it means to be a kingdom of priests in a prodigal world. Discover the mission that God gave his people many centuries ago and how that impacts us today.

The culture in Corinth conflicted greatly with the lifestyle that the Apostle Paul proclaimed to those who chose to follow Jesus. In the same way, the church today is called to proclaim the gospel in every environment, showing the world what it looks like when we give our lives to Jesus.

Like the Roman Empire, today's governments or organizations can become centered on power and believe their messages are the 'good news.' As Christians, we're called to proclaim God's name in all the earth, but how do we to do that in the midst of false gospels?

In John 17:26 Jesus says "e;I made known your name to them, and I will continue to make it known..."e; In this fourteenth volume of That the World May Know, you'll deepen your understanding of this passionate revelation to a broken world God longs to redeem. Discover how Jesus triumphantly made God's presence known on Earth, and how he asks you to do the samebringing God's shalom to the chaos of others.Sessions include:Capernaum: Jesus Blinds the Evil OneDecapolis: The Other SideJesus and the ManCrucifixion: The Coronation of a KingAscension: The King Takes His ThronePentecost: God Changed His AddressDesigned for use with The Mission of Jesus Video Study 9780310812586 (sold separately).
