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?

This week we look at Mark 10:46-52, the great story of Jesus and a blind man who had remarkable faith - even before Jesus healed him, he threw aside the cloak that marked him as a beggar. He was ready for a new story. Are we?

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. Today we reflect on the cry this man utters, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" When have we been driven to cry out for God's mercy?

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. How does our physical sight help or hinder our ability to see by faith? 

This week we look at Mark 10:35-45, in Jesus’ disciples squabble – and Jesus reminds them that following him is about service - and that he has ransomed us from everything that holds us bound. From what do you need freeing?

This week we look at Mark 10:35-45, in Jesus’ disciples squabble – and Jesus reminds them that following him is about service. Yet our serving of others needs to be balanced by our willingness to be served. Where is the balance for you? 

This week we look at Mark 10:35-45, in Jesus’ disciples squabble – and Jesus reminds them that following him is about humility, not glory. The kind of leadership to which Christ-followers are called is one of service - can't get much more counter-cultural than that!

This week we look at Mark 10:35-45, in Jesus’ disciples squabble – and Jesus reminds them that following him is about humility, not glory. Can we invest in God's love and life and entrust the payoff to God?
