Passions, possessions and position. Those are the three "P"'s we're looking at in Mark chapter ten. We looked at passions last time, and today we'll begin a look at possessions. There are between ten and fifteen million cars junked in the United States each year. Can you believe it? Our "stuff" never lasts very long... so what does?

Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley will take us to Mark chapter ten, where the subject turns to marriage and divorce. When is remarriage permissible? Have you ever wondered what God has to say in answer to that question? Today, Lloyd will help us reason through that issue.

Mark chapter ten is about as contemporary as this morning's headlines, as it deals with a problem that is commonplace in the year 2025 - divorce. Back in the first century, men were divorcing their wives left and right, and the Pharisees asked Jesus if that was lawful. We'll see what our Lord had to say on the matter on this edition of Bridging the Gap

What is the key to greatness in God's kingdom? Find out today on Bridging the Gap as we return to our study of Mark. Pastor Lloyd Pulley will be highlighting the ninth chapter, where Jesus is teaching His disciples a few valuable lessons on servanthood and faith.

Our scripture reference today is Mark chapter nine, verses thirty through fifty, where Jesus speaks about true greatness in the kingdom, how to deal with sin, and what happens to those who cause a believer to stumble.

Today we derive encouragement from Mark chapter nine, where Jesus not only dealt with the needs of His disciples, but performed several miracles as well. He took Peter, James and John with Him up to a high mountain and was transfigured before them. He also later encountered a desperate father.

Many of us have wondered what it will be like to see God as He is. As Christians, we're told that seeing Him face to face will be a reality one day in heaven. But wouldn't it be nice to get a glimpse of that glory here on earth? Peter, James, and John had that opportunity on a mountain one day and we'll take a look at their experience here on this edition of Bridging the Gap.

Jesus asked His disciples, "Who do you say that I am?" That's a question He still asks of us, as we'll soon discover. The world will give you all sorts of definitions of Jesus Christ - enlightened prophet, peace loving hippie, but they won't tell you who He really is - our Messiah - God in human flesh.

Those of you who are familiar with Mark's gospel may recall the story of the feeding of the five thousand that we studied in chapter six. Well, today we encounter a similar miracle. Jesus is about to teach His disciples a valuable lesson on love and compassion.

Lloyd is currently leading us on an exciting and challenging study through the miracles Jesus performed in the seventh chapter of the gospel of Mark. This account of the life of Jesus Christ is the shortest of the four gospels, but certainly contains many relevant lessons for us. Today we'll look at the Lord's healing of a deaf and dumb man, found in Mark chapter seven, beginning in verse thirty one.
