That's What She Said

Mark 13 is a whole chapter about the end of the world as we know it. Jesus said more about the Zombie Apocalypse than you might imagine -- and less. 

Michon. She will cut. you. up.

What does your church do with your money? Wouldn't you like to know?

In Mark 12:35-44, Jesus sits himself down to watch how much moola people put in the plate. Seriously?! 

The Llangernyw Yew: one of the oldest life forms on our planet.

Lifespan: we've all got one. We live as long as we're useful. Jesus, the fig tree, the scribe balancing on one foot, our church -- how long will we last? Mark 12:1-34.

The real reason Jesus cursed that fig tree.

Wherein Jesus curses the military-industrial complex and the consumer-capitalist economy. Or maybe just the fig tree. Mark 11. 

Mark 10:32-52: the Son of Man, the Sons of Zebedee, the Son of Timaeus, the Son of David. And a critical question Jesus asks twice: "What do you want me to do for you?" Not easily answered, at least for me.

Everyone's favorite sermon topic!

Whose idea was it to preach All the Things Jesus Said in Mark? Ugh. Mark 10:1-31.

Jess kept us moving forward with this exploration of Mark 9:30-50, wherein Jesus predicts that we will all be "salted with fire." Which sounds painful. To which Jess can attest.
