LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION // Matt 6:13

THE FOUR SOILS // Mark 4:1-20

BINDING THE STRONG MAN // Mark 2:20-27

Jesus's words here are known the world over. They are recited by believers and non-believers alike, but do we sometimes pass over the depths of their meaning?

LORD OF THE SABBATH // Mark 2:23-3:6

The Pharisees attack Jesus and His disciples for what they consider to be breaking the law by healing and plucking grain on the sabbath. The Pharisees had become so the letter of the law and their traditions that they missed the Person whom those laws were supposed to guide them to. How can we avoid this same trap? Buky Olomolaiye explains.
