Mark 12:18-27- Wedding or Not, Here We Come?

What does the resurrection mean for me today? It means being in a posture of allowing God to constantly blow your mind. Evergreen remains in Mark's gospel as Jesus continues to be tested, this time by the Sadducees.

John 19:28-30 - "Good Friday: It is Finished"

On Good Friday, we pause for just a moment, recognizing the deep loss of Jesus' life. His death gives life, but we need to make sure we take the time to mourn, as it gives meaning to Easter Sunday.

John 19:16b-27 - Woman, Here is Your Son

The second Sunday in Lent makes us lend an ear to Jesus, who speaks to his mother and friend, taking the breaking pieces and putting us all back together in community.

Mark 12:1-12 - Bad Tenets

Tenets, not tenants. Well, both actually. Tenets are ideas, but there doesn't seem to be a good idea from this father who trusted people- even with his own son.

Mark 11:27-33 - Who's Asking?

Jesus' authority is in question as he has upset tables in the temple, he has also upset the chief priests and teachers. Is he authorized?

Mark 11:11-26 - Rotten Roots Yet Full of Leaves

A hungry and frustrated Jesus finds his way into the temple after cursing a fig tree. Like the temple coming down, Jesus knows that something that is present and useless is worse than tearing it down to make way for the new.

Mark 11:1-11 - Slowing Down

Mark pumps the brakes as we go from a tempo of the immediate, to one of the last week of Jesus' life.

Mark 10:46-52 - Anonymous

It means so much to be known. We like to know, but we have a great desire to be known and heard. This week we look at a blind beggar whose name becomes eternal.

Mark 10:13-45 - Grown Up Stuff

Who can receive eternal life? Mark 10 contains an array of people, find out who can lay claim...

Mark 10:1-12 - Splitting Heirs

Trying to trap Jesus doesn't work. Controversy can be a part of any relationship causing division. It can split close couples, and even believing people. Jesus speaks to intention of God, not to the interpretation of man in Mark 10.

John 15:1-17 - We Wish

As the year comes to end, did all of the wishes you had for 2018 come to be? Maybe you are wishing for something more for next year. Jesus asks us to remain in him, and in so doing, our wishes may just come true.

Luke 2:1-11 - We Wonder

As we look at the Christmas story, it may seem so familiar that we lose the luster and wonder of the season. Listen as we continue to marvel at all that God is doing.

Isaiah 40:27-31 - We are Weary

In the days leading to Christmas, we can become so tired and weary of the directions we are pulled in this season. Whether its year end, or last minute presents, it seems like we all can be weary.

Isaiah 40: 12-26 - We Waver

As we approach Christmas Day, we long for solidarity- the strength to stay strong and not waver. Isaiah speaks to how God is unchanging, but would like to make a change- in me and in you.

Isaiah 40:1-8 - We Want

This Advent, we explore the very feelings and emotions that come with this time of year. As Advent begins, we explore the feeling of being in want, as Isaiah encourages Israel, he encourages us all.

Mark 9:42-50 - Salted Sacrifices

Before Advent, we pause at Mark 9 to consider the sacrifices made- past and present. What does a salty sacrifice look like?

Mark 9:30-41- Being Behind...

Following the disciples trying to get ahead, we find out what getting behind Jesus may actually look like.

Nov 11, 2018 3:00 AM America/Edmonton

Mark 9:14-29 - Getting Ahead...

The well-meaning disciples are stumped again. We desire the presence of God in our lives and today Jesus comes publicly, in purity and power.
