Real Life for Jesus and His Followers, what was it really like? (week of Jan. 30, 2nd to listen to)

In this shortcast, Kerry talks about what life was really like for people in the Savior's day. Where did they live? What were their homes like? How did they interact with family? What did they eat? How did they prepare that food? What did they eat on? What was ritual cleanliness for them and how did that play out in regular life? Answering each of these questions allows us to understand better many stories and parables we read about in the New Testament. Further, it allows us to picture these stories better, making them, and Jesus, all the more real for us.
