- Can You Earn Eternal Life? || Mark 10:17-31
How does a person obtain eternal life? In this episode, J. Mark and Tony examine Jesus’ encounter with the rich young ruler in Mark 10:17-31. This man brought up the universal question, “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” In this discussion, we highlight the insufficient righteousness of humans, and the danger of relying on wealth or good works to enter God’s kingdom. Explore this passage with us as we look at the four different directions we must look to find eternal life.

36 min - Why Jesus Valued Children || Mark 10:13-16
In this week’s episode, J. Mark and Tony explore Jesus’ countercultural view of children. In Mark 10:13–16, Jesus tells His disciples to “let the children come,” a radical statement in a culture where rabbis often overlooked children. Through this act, Jesus shows the value He places on them. He also teaches that entering the kingdom of God requires childlike faith. This episode highlights three essential ideas demonstrated in this passage: the views, virtues, and values of children.

41 min - What About Divorce? || Mark 10:1-12
Divorce is a common end to many marriages today. What is Jesus’ response to the issue of divorce? In today’s episode, Anthony, our host, and J. Mark, our Bible teacher, tackle this controversial and difficult discussion as they study Mark 10:1-12. The Pharisees are testing Jesus on the subject of divorce, and they confront him with the question, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” Jesus points back to creation, clarifying God’s original design for marriage. Marriage reflects the covenantal relationship between God and humanity, and divorce mars that sacred image. Watch now to discover how Jesus reveals God’s design for marriage.

42 min - Radical Discipleship || Mark 9:30-50
What is essential in Jesus’ Kingdom? On this episode, Anthony is joined by our Bible teacher, J. Mark, to explore Mark 9:30-50, where Jesus shows what is valued in his kingdom. Between His predictions of the cross, Jesus withdraws to teach his disciples privately, showing the importance of anonymity. He corrects their pride by demonstrating humility and expands their vision of the kingdom of God through inclusivity—"Whoever is not against us is for us.” But most importantly, Jesus explains the need for radical discipleship through love, purity, and obedience.

42 min - How to Grow Your Faith || Mark 9:14-29
In this episode, our Bible teachers discuss the four kinds of faith revealed in Mark 9:14–29. This section of Scripture guides believers in understanding and strengthening their faith by showing examples of different kinds of faith coupled with the power of God. Jesus invites us to place our faith in Him, but sometimes our faith is weak. The father of the demon-possessed boy in Mark 9:24 pleads, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” This illustrates how we can grow in our faith. Will we continue to have weak or misplaced faith, or will we pursue a seeking and healing faith that reveals our dependence on God?

33 min - Jesus’ Glory: The Meaning of the Transfiguration || Mark 9:1-13
What is the meaning of the transfiguration? In this episode, we explore Mark 9:1-13 and examine the disciples' experience on the mount with Jesus. Jesus was transformed—his clothes became radiant, and he broke through the limitations of his humanity, revealing the Glory of Christ. This moment confirms Jesus’ identity as the Son of God—a reality that demands our reverence and obedience. In this passage, we see how this glory is not separated from suffering, but how rejection is intertwined with the glory that is to come.

29 min - Vision Through the Cross: Seeing Jesus Clearly || Mark 8
Do you have spiritual blindness? As we examine Mark 8 in this episode, we encounter different levels of spiritual blindness—the willful blindness of the Pharisees and the partial blindness of the disciples. Jesus illustrates this blindness in his unique way of healing a blind man. He then reveals that true sight comes not through seeking glory, but through understanding his path to the cross. In this episode, we learn how to truly see Jesus clearly—by denying ourselves, taking up our cross, and following Him.

40 min - Jesus Does All Things Well || Mark 7:31-37
In this episode exploring Mark 7:31–37, we see how Jesus truly “does all things well.” In Gentile territory, Jesus encounters a deaf man with a speech impediment and responds to the faith of his friends. Jesus takes the man aside and heals him in a personal and incarnational way. He shows respect for his dignity rather than seeking public attention or glory. Through this story, we gain a deeper understanding of Jesus, our Savior, and discover lessons we can apply to our own lives.

32 min - Faith Beyond Tradition: What Defiles Us? || Mark 7:14-30
In this week’s study of Mark 7:14–30, Jesus teaches that true defilement doesn’t come from what’s outside of us, but from what’s within. At the end of the chapter, a Canaanite mother’s faith illustrates this truth, showing that it’s not outward rituals that make us clean, but a humble, persistent faith that seeks God’s mercy. A woman the Pharisees would have called “unclean” displays a heart purer than any ritual could produce. In this episode, we explore what this passage teaches about sincere faith, impartial mercy, and the power of persistent prayer.

29 min - How Tradition Can Blind You || Mark 7:1-13Traditions are a part of every culture, but they can be misused. In this episode, we dive back into our series on Mark and examine Mark 7:1-13. We see the Pharisees condemning Jesus for not following tradition. Jesus responds to them in a way that can guide us in how we should hold tradition. While traditions are essential for cultural continuity and often arise from sincere efforts to please God, they become problematic when their origins are forgotten or used for selfish purposes. We explore what a balanced approach to tradition is and how we can demonstrate genuine worship to God.SOCIAL LINKS Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LanPnpa5gQoFollow us: https://linktr.ee/guidethroughthebible37 min
