When Jesus returns to Nazareth, He is met not with faith but with cynicism. The people most familiar with Him are unable to receive Him for who He truly is and miss what God wants to do among them. In the same way, unbelief can keep us from experiencing the fullness of God's work in our lives. From Mark 6:1–6.

What happens when we need God to act now, but He seems delayed? Through Jairus and the bleeding woman, Jesus shows that His timing is not a sign of indifference, but of love. He cares about every need we bring Him, but is most committed to addressing our deepest need. From Mark 5:21–43

Caught in a storm, the disciples question whether Jesus cares that they are perishing. But when He speaks and even the wind and sea obey Him, they begin asking the question at the center of Mark’s Gospel: “Who then is this?” From Mark 4:35-41.

What should we expect when we step into the way and mission of Jesus? Teaching from Matthew 28:18–20, Rich Dugan explores the Great Commission not as a distant command, but as an invitation into a life where Jesus is present, active, and still transforming people through ordinary faithfulness.

Jesus describes the kingdom of God as something both visible and mysterious - like light that cannot stay hidden or seeds slowly becoming something far greater than they first appeared. As we surrender ourselves to Him day by day, Jesus grows something in us that eventually grows beyond us. From Mark 4:21-34.

Jesus tells a story that reveals more than it explains—why the same message is heard by many but takes root in few. It’s not about striving, but becoming the kind of people who receive it deeply. What takes root in us shapes what grows out of us. From Mark 4:1–20.

Jesus sees a man everyone else avoids, sits with people no one trusts, and starts something in them that doesn’t fit into their old life. From Mark 2:13-22. 

In a surprising encounter, Jesus confronts the gap between what we most want and what we most need and how He alone has the authority to satisfy both. From Mark 2:1-12. 

Jesus steps onto the scene with an authority people can’t ignore, seen in how He teaches, acts, and lives. And while we tend to trust ourselves above all else, His call reaches into our future, what we believe is true, and the voices we listen to. From Mark 1:16-39

This Easter, we begin the Gospel of Mark at the very beginning. Jesus offers a new beginning—but not without a necessary ending, as He calls us to turn, trust, and follow Him. From Mark 1:1-15.
