Week 18 | Be My Witnesses w/ Bishop Boyea

The Old Testament is a progression of prophecies, each pointing towards the Messiah who is to come. This is particularly true of the four "Suffering Servant Songs" in Isaiah (42:1-4; 49:1-6; 50:4-10; 52:13-53:12) which the Church has always understood as a foreshadowing of the passion, death, and resurrection of Our Lord, Jesus Christ. Hence, Bishop Boyea's challenge this week: "Sit before a Crucifix and read these four suffering servant songs. Let Jesus walk with you as you do so and have him explain to you how this was all necessary for our salvation and that of the whole world."
