Are you asking God for direction—or just hoping He’ll agree with you? Sometimes we bring Jesus a question with our answer already picked out. In Mark 10:1–9, the Pharisees ask about divorce, but Jesus takes them back to God’s original design for marriage. His response challenges the heart behind our questions: Have we settled for […]

Jesus called us to be the SALT of the earth. But what happens when the salt loses its flavor? In Mark 9:30–50, Jesus challenges His disciples about pride, selfish ambition, territorialism, and sin. And then He tells them something powerful: “You must have the qualities of salt among yourselves.” Here’s the problem: We can’t season […]

You don’t have to have perfect faith to trust a perfect Savior. In Mark 9, a desperate father brings his son to Jesus with one of the most honest prayers in Scripture: “I do believe, but help me overcome my unbelief!” That’s where a lot of us live—somewhere between believing God and battling the part […]

What does it really mean to follow Jesus and call Him King? In Mark 8:27–35, Peter makes the right confession—“You are the Messiah”—and then almost immediately tries to tell Jesus what kind of Messiah He should be. And if we’re honest, we do the same thing. We want Jesus as Savior, but we still reach […]

What if you’re not fully healed yet? What if you can see… but everything still looks like trees? In Mark 8:22–26, Jesus heals a blind man in stages—and shows us something powerful about restoration. Sometimes Jesus changes our environment before He changes our circumstances. Sometimes restoration comes in phases. And sometimes the most faith-filled thing […]

How do you watch Jesus provide again and again…and still panic when you’re down to one loaf? In Mark 8:1–21, Jesus feeds thousands, the Pharisees demand another sign, and the disciples somehow forget what they’ve already seen Him do. And if we’re being real, we do the exact same thing. We ask God to prove […]

Offense will happen. People will hurt you. Truth will confront you. And sometimes Jesus will move in a way you didn’t expect—or even like. The question isn’t whether you’ll ever get offended. The question is whether you’ll let offense derail your faith. In Mark 7:24–37, two Gentiles encounter Jesus in two very different ways. One […]

It’s possible to follow all the rules and still have a heart far from God. In Mark 7, Jesus confronts a religious system that had become more committed to its traditions than to the heart of God. But then He takes it even deeper: our biggest problem isn’t the evil around us—it’s the sin already […]

Another storm. Another boat. Another chance for Jesus to show His disciples who He really is. In Mark 6, the disciples are exhausted, fighting the wind and getting nowhere—while doing exactly what Jesus told them to do. Then Jesus shows up, walking on the very thing they’re struggling against. And Peter decides if Jesus is […]

What do you do when what you have isn’t enough? In Mark 6, Jesus looks at an impossible need and tells His disciples, “You feed them.” They see what they’re missing. Jesus asks what they already have—and what happens next shows us what Jesus can do when we trust Him with our “not enough.” In […]

What if rejecting Jesus doesn’t always look like outright rebellion? In Mark 6, we see three different responses to the Kingdom of God: some people remain unconvinced, some become unwilling to listen, and others find themselves against God’s work without ever intending to be. The surprising truth is that rejecting the King rarely happens all […]

What do you do when life tells you, “There’s no use”? In this message from Mark 5, we watch Jesus meet two people whose situations couldn’t have been more different—one woman had suffered for 12 long years, while a father’s world fell apart in a single moment. To both, Jesus reveals the same truth: our […]

What does the Bible actually say about demons, spiritual warfare, and the authority of Jesus? In Mark 5:1-20, Jesus crosses through a storm and comes face-to-face with a man tormented by a legion of demons. What happens next proves that no darkness, bondage, or spiritual force is greater than King Jesus. But this story isn’t […]

Jesus called this the parable that unlocks all the others. Why? Because it reveals how God’s Kingdom grows. In this message from Mark 4:1-20, we explore the four types of soil, what it really means to “hear” God’s Word, and why every follower of Jesus is called to be both good soil and a faithful […]

Have you ever worried you committed the unforgivable sin? You’re not alone. In one of the most misunderstood passages in the Bible, Jesus talks about a sin with eternal consequences—and for generations people have wondered if they’ve accidentally crossed a line they can never come back from. In this message from Mark 3, we unpack […]

Chris and Carmen McBeath are in the house today as they get ready to head back to Nicaragua. Chris shares a powerful, encouraging word on PATIENCE.

Everybody loves the idea that Jesus meets us where we are. The harder question is: what happens when He calls us somewhere new? In Mark 3, Jesus leaves the crowds behind, climbs a mountain, and calls a handful of ordinary people to come closer. They could have stayed comfortable. They could have stayed hidden in […]

In Mark 3, Jesus heals a man with a shriveled hand…but the real miracle may not be what happened to the man’s hand. It’s what the story reveals about the human heart. While one man stretched out the broken thing and found healing, a group of religious leaders hardened their hearts and walked away even […]

Most of us spend our lives trying to patch up the old version of ourselves…be better, try harder, fix the damage, clean up the mess. But in Mark 2, Jesus says the Gospel doesn’t work like a patch on old clothes or new wine in old wineskins. Why? Because Jesus didn’t come to reinforce the […]

Jesus healed the paralyzed man in Mark 2…but the real shock of the story might be the four friends willing to RIP A ROOF OFF to get somebody to Him. Too many churches are content to watch Jesus work while becoming obstacles to people desperate for hope. But real faith carries corners, removes barriers, and […]

“If you are willing…” That question sits underneath more of our lives than we realize. In Mark 1:40–42, a man everyone else avoided comes to Jesus—and instead of stepping back, Jesus steps in. He doesn’t just speak healing…He touches what everyone else calls unclean. “I am willing.” If you’ve ever felt like you have to […]

What does it actually mean to follow Jesus? In Mark 1:16–20, Jesus doesn’t call perfect people—He calls ordinary people into an extraordinary mission. “Follow me, and I will make you…”—following comes first, then He does the transforming. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit, or like you’re just watching from a distance, this message […]

Still stuck on milk? It’s time to grow up. Elizabeth Eggleston brings a bold, practical message on ditching compromise and stepping into the kind of faith that actually matures.
