Jesus Teaches on Divorce | Mark 10:1-12
We are currently in a teaching series called Follow Me: The Gospel of Mark. The purpose of this series has been to learn what it means to be a follower of Jesus—how to enter into a relationship with Him, and how to carry on a relationship with Him. As we have observed, Mark’s Gospel centers around two questions: who is Jesus, and what kind of Christ is He? Now that Peter has clearly confessed Jesus as the Messiah, the rest of the book focuses on the suffering nature of His coming. This week, we will be studying Mark 10:1-12 as Jesus Teaches on Divorce. We will see that while teaching in Judea, Jesus corrects the Pharisees' misunderstanding of divorce, reaffirming that marriage is a one-flesh covenant, not a casual union. Listen in as we study this passage and apply it to our lives.
The Traditions of Men | Mark 7:1-23
We are in the middle of a teaching series called Follow Me: The Gospel of Mark. In this book, Mark tells the concise and fast pace account of Jesus, the Son of God, who has come to call disciples to follow Him. This week, we will be studying Mark 7:1-23, observing the Traditions of Men. In this story, we will see how Jesus corrected the Pharisees’ man-made traditions, rebuking their hypocrisy, and teaching that true defilement comes from the human heart. Join us on Sunday as we study this passage and apply it to our lives—learning the kind of worship that is truly pleasing to God.
Opposition and Sending | Mark 6:1-29
We are currently in a teaching series called Follow Me: The Gospel of Mark. This book focuses on Jesus’ earthly ministry as He seeks to make disciples. This book is divided into several sections—the first part of the book focuses on His ministry in Galilee and this week we will see His ministry shift to regions beyond. As we gather together, we will be studying Mark 6:1-29, seeing how Jesus sends His disciples to expand the message of the Kingdom of God beyond Galilee, despite increasing opposition marked by His rejection in Nazareth and the execution of John the Baptist. Join us as we explore the themes of opposition and sending and seek to apply timeless truths to our lives.
