In Acts chapter 20 we have a unique account of a faithful minister taking leave of those in his charge and moving on to God's next step. Paul had ministered deeply for a time to the church at Ephesus and was answering the call of the Holy Spirit to go to Jerusalem but wanted to leave the elders in the Ephesian church with a final word before his departure. Visiting pastor Ben Wright opens the Scriptures with this message concerning the stewarding & shepherding of a local church and the responsibilities of both the pastor and congregation in the work of the Kingdom. Our Scripture reading for this message is in Jeremiah 26:1-15.

Sometimes, we can identify with the disciple's puzzlement as they came face to face with God in the flesh in the person of Christ. And yet, the message that is contained here in Mark 8 is of great importance and can certainly be grasped with the help of the Holy Spirit. The world seeks to be satisfied in so many ways but only Christ offers the sufficiency necessary to fulfill the longing in our souls for complete satisfaction.

We would encourage you to begin today's study by first reading Isaiah chapter 35. It's connection to the message contained in Mark 7:31-37 cannot be overstated. In this day of sin, turmoil, elections, corruption and suffering, we sometimes struggle to affirm this truth that Christ has done and will do all things well. But if we can grasp and believe this truth, we have the opportunity of knowing more of God as who He truly is and His purpose in circumstances and history.
