Sometimes we know what we believe but aren't studied enough to defend it. The chorus of Jon Reddick's song "I Believe It (The Life of Jesus)" inspired me to search for Scriptural evidence supporting what I believe about the life of Jesus.

Join me as we use this week's song as inspiration to search the Scriptures for why we believe what we believe.
