Mark is here!
From a man who knew the apostles and knew the Savior, came a book that revealed the ironic truth - the Savior suffered. For thousands of years, mankind had waited for the promised one. But His reception was marked by rejection instead of rejoicing. With an inspired pen and a devoted heart, Mark recorded the rejection of Jesus by family, friends, and disciples. Learned from both the sermons of Peter as well as personal knowledge, Mark shows the reader that Jesus was the suffering servant, long-prophesied about by the prophet Isaiah. With the pace of an action packed drama, Mark moves the reader along in such a way to lead one to the inevitable conclusion - the Son of God offered His life as a substitute for our sins. Come visit us on Sundays to learn more about our Savior. The closer you get to Him, the better it is!
This series works through the gospel of Mark. It promises to serve as a life-shaping book as we get up close and personal with our Savior Jesus Christ. The weekly sermons will teach many truths that perhaps would not have been recognized had we simply gone to a single passage of Scripture to read and then run away. But now, in the way that Ezra did for the people of Israel (Nehemiah 8:8), we will systematically read, learn, and live out the lessons that God has for us in this great book.
Such consistent weekly preaching through this book will accomplish the following.
So, grab your Bible, bring a pen, and get ready to learn God’s Word for God’s people for all times.
The sermons began 9/14/08 and continued through 10/18/09 Sermons.
