    Crisis: Dangerous Opportunity

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 14, 2001
    based on 39 ratings
     | 5,356 views

    Jesus precipitated a crisis for others around Him: for Judas, for the disciples, for Peter. Their reactions are like ours -- confused -- but Jesus knows who He is in the midst of the crisis.

    based on 35 ratings
     | 2,914 views

    Jesus’ experience at Mt Olives demonstrates his voluntary submission to crucifixion and how we are to handle a "No" answer to prayer. He demonstrates his humanity in his grief as he walks the path from Anxiety to Acceptance.

    Hope Community Church February 8, 2004 Bro. Chris Hill Contemporary American culture values the independent thinker who can make quick decisions.
