76 - How Jesus' Humanity Works

Did Jesus always know that he was God, or did he acquire that knowledge at some point during his childhood or adolescence? Were there things that Jesus didn't know when he was on earth? Did he know what was going to happen in the future? Was Jesus ever tempted to sin, or to despair?

In this episode, we discuss the incredible mystery of the hypostatic union: Jesus as fully God and fully human.
