As Bible teachers, we want our students' exposure to the word to be transformative.

We don't want it just to be informative.

We don't want them to go away saying, wow, that was a lot of stuff I didn't know before.

We wanted to change them.

And I think that looking at Jesus ministry from the standpoint of prophet,

priest and king, and then being alert to these themes wherever we teach, should help us to see

and help our learners to see how Christ fully meets all of our needs.

Glad to.
