The Footsteps of Jesus Weekend Experience

Published on February 12, 2025

A special invitation from Encounter Baptist Church.

The Footsteps of Jesus Weekend Experience is a Virtual Pilgrimage through the Life of Jesus presented by Bob Rognlien.

Join us for a weekend that will forever change your understanding and experience of what it means to follow Jesus! Using thousands of compelling photographs, insightful reconstruction drawings, and first-hand accounts of where it all took place, we will follow the life of Jesus from his birth in Bethlehem to his death and resurrection in Jerusalem. In each session we will see how ancient discoveries illuminate the Gospels and help us follow Jesus’ Way in our lives today.

The weekend is comprised of four intensive teaching and processing sessions as follows:

  1. Jesus’ World: We examine the six key groups that made up Jewish society at the time of Jesus to understand the world into which he came.
  2. Jesus’ Preparation: We look at Jesus’ birth, boyhood, baptism and temptation which prepared him for his message and mission.
  3. Jesus Mission: We explore the revolutionary mission Jesus carried out among the residents of the Jewish towns and villages around the Sea of Galilee.
  4. Jesus’ Triumph: We follow Jesus from Galilee to Jerusalem where Jesus teaches and heals in the Temple courts. After the Last Supper we go from Gethsemene to Golgotha to the empty tomb where we reflect on the climatic events that have forever changed the world.

Tickets include Saturday Lunch and refreshments.
