In Mark 15, we read about the trial and crucifixion of Jesus Christ, and that instead of us receiving the sentence of "death," He instead takes our place so that we may have eternal life with the Father. Because we are ALL Barabbas.
In Mark chapter 14 we learn that Jesus was abandoned, betrayed, and denied. And through it all, the suffering he suffering he endured, we will never be abandoned, betrayed, or denied by him.
There's three important points from Mark chapter 13. Jesus is going to return, we are all commanded to "be ready," and whatever you doing will be meaningless when he returns. So, share with those you know, or don't know, and help them on the "life raft."
In Mark chapter 12 we are reminded by the poor widow of what it means to give what we have -- sacrificially. And this is a stark reminder that things that are celebrated in the world, are unimportant in the Kingdom of God and that as followers of Christ, we must be champions of the unseen.
Jesus enters Jerusalem and very quickly begins to upset the Scribes, Pharisees, and teachers of religious law -- beginning with flipping tables at the temple.This Sunday, Pastor Tim reminds us that for every obstacle that the Pharisees set in place in the Bible, Jesus overcame it. And that Jesus will reveal obstacles in our lives that we have set in place...and through Him, we can over come them.
To embrace Kingdom greatness is not really what we think it is. As a matter of fact, it's the opposite of what the world tells us.This Sunday, Pastor Tim discusses the interaction between James, John and Jesus from Mark chapter 10 and how the disciples declare that they are ready for the "bitter cup of suffering." But, they truly didn't know the real meaning of it.
In Mark, chapter 9, we see Jesus interact with a man who proclaims his lack of faith - as many of us have encountered in our own lives! But, all of us can find encouragement in this text that our doubts don't disqualify us from God's grace.
This Sunday, Pastor Jack reminds us that not only is Jesus our Provider, he is also our Provision.
He is RISEN! He is risen INDEED!This Sunday, Pastor Tim takes us to Luke 24 to talk about a unique encounter Cleopas and his friend experience on the road to Emmaus.
Jesus never backed down from Pharisee questions or accusations; often responding to them with scripture to not only help them see the truth but to correct them. This Sunday, we see in Mark chapter 7, the Pharisee's accuse Jesus' disciples of not following tradition revealing that they have elevated the "rules" over the Word of God.
Jesus is the greatest leader -- ever. As he leads and trains his disciples he equips and empowers them to not just follow in ministry but to DO ministry, he shows them balance between a life of ministry and rest, and finally he continually encourages them in their faith through grace and compassion.
In the story of the demon possessed man we learn that Jesus has the absolute authority over every demonic spirit that terrorizes humans; and that only through faith in him can we find salvation, healing and freedom.
In Mark chapter 4, there are several parables Jesus teaches on. And all of them reveal the Kingdom of God as upside down when compared to the priorities of this world. So... will you embrace the Kingdom way of life?
In Mark chapter 3, Pastor Tim walks us through verses 1-6 and reminds us that as much as we are rooting for Jesus to show those Pharisees, often times we find ourselves to be the Pharisees. We have to daily seek Him, daily walk with Him through God's Word, daily let Jesus become more a part of our lives.
This Sunday, Pastor Tim focuses on Jesus healing the paralytic from Mark chapter 2 and discusses the value of forgiveness of sins, which happened first, and the value of healing, which happened second.
In chapter one of the book of Mark, we see Jesus being baptized by John, the beginning of his ministry, and most importantly we see Jesus established as the Son of God.
Prayer is the priority. Worship is on our lips. God's Word is our sword.Now, as we fight, we need to constantly remember that our battlefield isn't a street or a neighborhood, it's in the mind, will and emotions. After all, we are not fighting WITH people; we fight FOR people.
In this final week, Pastor Tim talks about the scripture and the importance it holds in our lives as we fight.
Examples of worship leading the way in battles are throughout the Bible. For us, it's one of the primary weapons we can use to spiritually fight.
"In Jesus name." It's more than a tagline at the end of a prayer. It's what brought us to our salvation and it's praying the power and authority of Christ INTO our circumstances. This Sunday, Pastor Tim talks about the importance of using the name of Jesus when it comes to fighting spiritual battles and how we too can see miracles.
