This week we look at Mark 12:38-44, in which we see someone with little give all she has. Jesus was watching people give at the temple and observed the generosity of many wealthy people. But how generous is it to give when we have a lot?

This week we look at Mark 12:38-44, in which we watch someone with much give little, and someone with little give all she has. Before we get to that, though, we start with the withering contempt Jesus had for many of the religious leaders of his day - how can we guard against hypocrisy and greed?

Today is All Saints Day - celebrating your sainthood, and mine! Saints is just a term for those who follow Jesus as Lord. What if we looked at our sainthood as a virus we can spread, bringing love and hope and dignity to people around us?

This week we look at Mark 12:28-34, in which Jesus gives one of his most important teachings about love - and offered a game-changing addition to the instruction to love God. We are also love our neighbors as ourselves. When we can do that, we will need no other commandments.

This week we look at Mark 12:28-34, in which Jesus gives one of his most important teachings about love. He says loving God with our whole heart, soul, mind and strength is the highest commandment. How do we do that?

This week we look at Mark 12:28-34, in which Jesus gives one of his most important teachings about love. We start by exploring the culture in which he lived and taught, which used argument and counter-argument to get at the truth about God. 

This week we look at Mark 10:46-52, the great story of Jesus and a blind man who could see reality better than anyone around him. He had heard about Jesus and was willing to step out of his old story into the new one God had for him. Are we?

This week we look at Mark 10:46-52, the great story of Jesus and a blind man - yet Jesus asks him what he wants him to do for him. It should be obvious, but Jesus asks. Jesus asks us that as well - what do you want him to do for you?
