Today's episode is an audio bible reading through the gospel of Mark chapter 3. This is a special series we do as we count down the days to Christmas!

Let's enjoy this audio bible reading together today where Jesus heals on the Sabbath testing the hearts of the Pharisees, and the news about His miracles  spread far and wide. Large crowds begin to follow Jesus and He heals many and cast out demons. And Jesus chooses the twelve and commissions them as apostles, sent to preach and given the authority to cast out demons.

This gospel is the shortest of all New Testament gospels and is likely the first to have been written, yet it often tells of Jesus’ ministry in more detail than either Matthew or Luke.

Let's jump in, Merry Christmas!
