The Man of Galilee | Episode 6 | Life and religion | Keith Garner
4When considering world religious, Christianity stands out in offering new life as a guift from God, rather than a reward to be earned or a destination to be achieved--and Jesus Christ is at the heart of this gift.
It is when we see the totality of His life, death and resurrection that we can begin to understand what He came to bring. This message is one that opens the gift of eternal life and offers a way of selfless, compassionate service towards others.
The Sea of Galilee is shaped like a harp. It's just 21 kilometers long, 13 kilometers at its widest and lies 200 meters below sea level, with an average depth of just 25 meters. In the first century, there were over 200 towns and villages around the Sea of Galilee, and over 250 boats fished its waters. The Galilee was a thriving agricultural region and was the setting for much of the mission of Jesus Christ. In Nazareth, Capernaum, Bethsaida, Tiberias, Tabgha, Magdala, at the Mount of Beatitudes and along the Jordan River, Keith Garner explores the ministry of Jesus in the context of first century life, explains biblical stories, and considers the questions asked of Jesus by his followers and adversaries, and which challenge the Christian faith today.
