The Challenge of Jesus

Bible Text: Mark 11:27-33; 12:1-12 | Preacher: Kyle Wells | Series: The Gospel of Mark

Some of us are rule-followers, some are rule-breakers, but most of us have a difficult relationship with authority. Examples of the abuse of authority are ubiquitous, whether in political leadership or in family life. Is there an authority we can trust? How would we relate to a good and benevolent authority that had our best interest in mind? Would we be willing to give up our own authority and submit?

Served People Serve People

Bible Text: Mark 10:32-45 | Preacher: Joshua Burdette | Series: The Gospel of Mark

It’s easy to serve our own needs, isn’t it? After all, they are immediate and instinctive. If we are hungry, we eat; thirsty, we drink; tired, we sleep. But to consider the needs of another takes work. It takes putting your own needs on hold until the other has been served. Mark tells us that Jesus came not to be served, but to serve his people.

Nothing in My Hands I Bring

Bible Text: Mark 10:17-31 | Preacher: Kyle Wells | Series: The Gospel of Mark

Our culture says contribute; in the office we are encouraged to be team players, when submitting applications for college we list all our extracurricular activities, when we go to someone’s house for dinner we take a hostess gift or bottle of wine. This deeply ingrained idea of contributing transfers into our relationship with God, but what does he have to say about putting something forward?
