Aim: To be transformed by the life of Christ coursing through the church's spiritual veins.
Exegesis: Christ's life defines our mission. Let us proclaim (v. 14a) and identify (vv. 14-16b) Him. Christ's life defines our message, which can get us into trouble (v. 17) and is not always popular (v. 18). Christ's life defines our manner. We persevere (vv. 19-20a) and preach (v. 20b) despite trials.
Key verse: v. 20 ''For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just and holy man, and he protected him. And when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.''
