The family relationship is one of the tightest relationships that we know and understand. We understand well the joys and the struggles of family relationships. Many understand the pain of a broken relationship when one is unfaithful to another. Those relationships are hard to repair. In love, though we had often been unfaithful to God, Jesus bound himself to us by blood and so became our brother. He had bonded himself to us and will stay faithful even when we are faithless. Mark 14:12-25.

What if prayer were more than a series of asks? Give me. Guide me. Guard me. Help me.  Hold me.  What if it were more than a series of requests?  It is.   Prayer is a time of worship.  Prayer is a time for hope.  Prayer is a time for struggle.  Listen in as we continue our look at the Lord's Prayer: Hallowed be thy name.  Thy kingdom come.  Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

This series will look at Mark’s Gospel, examining the events that led up to the crucifixion and burial of Jesus. Mark took great lengths to communicate why the cross was necessary and what it accomplished for us. Namely, that the King of the Universe came to give himself as a ransom for a world that gathered to mock him, so that they could become people who worship him. The entire book culminates in the declaration of the centurion from the foot of the cross, “Surely this man was the Son of God”. This week: Mark 10:32-45

The address says it all.  God wants us to come to him as children of a loving father who don’t care about the right words and don’t care about bugging him too much.  They come with confidence and expectation b/c they know this is the man who loves them and has proven it 1,000 times.

Who's your enemy? It's a more difficult question to answer than you might expect. The command that prompts the question is even higher and more difficult to follow than you might expect as a result. Listen in below to know the heart of God's will for your life, but also the heart of his gospel that's for you too. Matthew 5:38-48
