BACK TO VOLUME PAGEThe majority of Jesus’ ministry was done in places like the town of Capernaum, among a people who loved to debate and discuss Torah in the synagogue. They didn’t always agree with each other, but their emphasis was on how to be faithful to God as their king because wherever God is served, the kingdom comes. But one day, after teaching in Capernaum, Jesus looked out across the Sea of Galilee and said to His disciples, “Let’s go to the other side.” Follow the steps of Jesus and the disciples as they enter the world of the Decapolis, a very different kind of kingdom with a very different kind of king.
