In Chaplain Walt's final message in this series on the book of Mark we look at the most significant event in all of history...the Resurrection of Jesus.   This is Chaplain Walt's final message as Lead Chaplain at Sky Valley Chapel.  It was delivered on January 29th.   You may follow his new ministry at www. activatedteams.org.    After brief sabbatical Walt will begin adding content to this podcast on an occasional basis.  In the meantime, go back and listen to what is posted the you may have missed.
Why did Jesus have to die on the cross?  Couldn't it have been done any other way?  How are we to live in light of Jesus' sacrifice for us?   Join Chaplain Walt for the penultimate message in our study of the Book of Mark--The Story of Jesus.
Jesus came to save...but he wasn't the Savior they were looking for.  While Pilate tried to acquit Jesus, the crowds and the religious leaders chose Barabbas to be freed and called for Jesus to be crucified.  Join Chaplain Walt for the look at How to Choose the Wrong Savior. 
It started with a man named Abraham.  God's redemptive plan for the world culminated in Jesus' death, burial and resurrection.  All the sacrifices, the Passover, it all pointed to his perfect sacrifice.   Join us at Chaplain Walt brings new/old meaning to the Lord's Supper/Communion/Eucharist. 
The birth of Jesus only gets 4 chapters in the Bible.  God became incarnate for a reason.   That reason was to go to the cross in order to provide salvation for mankind.  Join Chaplain Walt for this unusual message delivered on Christmas Day 2022 at Sky Valley Chapel. 
When things seem dark, and despair sets in, the bells of Christmas and the message of hope can restore our faith.   Special musical presentation by Bruce Carroll.
It's the final week of Jesus' life on Earth before going to the cross.  He takes time to teach in the Temple about money and stewardship.   Join Chaplain Walt as we look at what God expects of those who claim to be Jesus followers regarding wealth and the things he entrusts to us.
They were the expert Bible scholars of Jesus' day...and they missed it.  They ended up as enemies of God who called for Jesus' death.  If we are not careful, we can misuse the Bible for our own purposes and miss the purpose of God.   Join Chaplain Walt as he explores Bible Study Gone Bad.
A scribe asked Jesus, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"   Jesus couldn't answer his question for there is not one most important, but two.  Love God, Love Others.  Join Chaplain Walt for this important teaching about what it means to love God and to love others.
Another group questions Jesus in the Temple trying to turn the people and Rome against him.  "Should we pay taxes to Rome?"  Either way he answers, they figure they win.  But they didn't count on his wisdom.  Then the Sadducees bring a ridiculous question to him.   Again, he responds and shuts them down.   Join Chaplain Walt as we continue through the last week of Jesus' ministry before he heads to the cross. 
Jesus so radically challenged the religious elite that they wanted to know who he thought he was.  Who was he to change their life?   What authority was he acting under?   Who is Jesus in YOUR life?  Join Chaplain Walt as he continues this challenging series in the Gospel of Mark.
In Mark 11 there are two instances of Jesus getting upset.  The first deals with a fig tree that falsely advertised that it bore fruit.  The second was the way the religious leaders neglected to provide for non-Jews to get close to God.  There are lessons for us in both of these as Jesus will judge us not by our lip service, but by our actions.  Join Chaplain Walt for this episode of our journey through the Gospel of Mark--The Story of Jesus.
The Jews who welcomed Jesus to Jerusalem had their own ideas about what Messiah meant.  What happens when the Jesus you get isn't the Jesus you wanted?   Join Chaplain Walt as we look at what happened that last week before the crucifixion and how we can avoid the trap they fell into.   
Last week Jesus asked James and John what he could do for them.   This week he asks blind Bartimaeus  the same question.  The results were very different.  Join Chaplain Walt as we look at a physically blind man who had great spiritual sight.
The temptation for self-promotion is real for all of us.   But Jesus taught that self-denial was the path to greatness in the Kingdom of God.   Join Chaplain Walt for this week's teaching from the Book of Mark. 
The young man seemed to have everything going for him, but he was troubled.  He came to Jesus and Jesus told him he lacked one thing.  Just one thing.   The man ended up going away sad.   Is there something in your life that stands in the way of Jesus being Lord of your life?   Join Chaplain Walt for this challenging message from the Gospel of Mark.
Divorce is a tough issue as it has affected nearly every one of us.  The subject was no less touchy in Jesus' day.  God's original intent was the permanence of marriage.  How are Christians to gracefully approach failed marriages and those who have suffered through marital breakup.  Join Chaplain Walt as he looks at what Jesus taught about divorce (and marriage).  
Jesus came to teach.  And he chose the most unlikely place and the most unlikely student to teach us about the essence of worship.   Join Chaplain Walt as we look at What Jesus Taught about Worship.
(Please note--This is Chaplain Walt's last scheduled podcast UNTIL October 2022. Please enjoy our archived podcasts over the summer, or catch up on what you've missed.)   Jesus said some pretty hard  and difficult things.  Today's passage is one of them as Jesus tells us to get radical about sin.  
We all tend to draw circles.  And then we decide who is inside, and outside the circle.   But is our circle congruent with Jesus' circle?  Join Chaplain Walt as he teaches from Mark ch 9 about the danger of making our circle too small.
