Today we have Gary Miracle joining us! Gary's struggles are very obvious to anyone who sees him, so people are quick to want to help him. But how can your church body help you keep your struggles hidden? We hope his personal story of God's faithfulness and kindness encourages you in your walk.

In Mark chapter 3, Jesus heals a man on the Sabbath and a conversation about mercy ensues. How aware am I of the mercy that God regularly shows me?

In Mark 2, Jesus calls himself "Lord of the Sabbath" and draws a line between legalism and grace.

We're in chapter 2 of the Gospel Of Mark and Jesus does something that would've been shocking for the people of that day - he invites a hated tax collector to follow him.

We're picking up The Gospel Of Mark today - in Mark 2, Jesus has an encounter with a paralyzed man and his friends. Sometimes there are needs that only the King of the universe can meet.

In Mark 1, a leper approaches Jesus and says to him, "If you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean." Mark then tells us that Jesus was moved with compassion and said "I am willing... be healed!" Jesus is willing to do what only he can do for us - to show us grace, make us clean, and pay the price we owe.

Ministry is meeting someone else’s need as a representative of Jesus, in the power of the Holy Spirit. Pastor Steve continues our study of Mark today and will talk about 4 keys to effective ministry that Jesus displays in Mark 1.
