Episode 9: Simon the Zealot and Judas (Not Iscariot): Diverse Roles
Let’s start with Simon the Zealot. His name alone is intriguing. The “Zealot” refers to a political group fiercely nationalistic Jews who sought to overthrow Roman rule. It’s important to understand how radical this group could be. They believed in using force if necessary to bring about change.
Imagine the contrast between that mindset and Jesus’ teachings turn the other cheek, love your enemies, blessed are the peacemakers. It’s a huge transformation. For Simon to leave behind a life of political aggression to follow Jesus is no small thing.
It reminds us that Jesus doesn’t erase our passions; He redirects them. For Simon, his zeal was transformed from rebellion to devotion.
On the other hand, we have Judas not Iscariot, also known as Judas Thaddeus or Jude, depending on the translation. Judas Iscariot, the betrayer, often overshadows him, but Judas Thaddeus is debated to be the writer of the Epistle of Jude in the New Testament - Interesting because Jude identifies as servant of Jesus and brother of James (so likely Jesus' brother).

Episode 7: Matthew – The Scribe of Grace
Introduction to Matthew's Story
Matthew—also known as Levi—was a tax collector, a role viewed with disdain in first-century Israel. Tax collectors were often seen as traitors to their people, working for the occupying Roman Empire and profiting at the expense of their fellow Jews.
But Jesus saw beyond that. With a simple but profound invitation—"Follow me"—Jesus called Matthew into a completely new life. Matthew’s immediate response was to leave everything behind and follow Him.
His transformation from tax collector to apostle, and eventually Gospel writer, reveals the redemptive power of grace and the deep purpose God can bring out of even the most unlikely lives.
