Are we good enough for God? Have we done enough? Do we really trust Him? Are we dependant on what we have – wealth of various kinds? What can we, and what can’t we give up for Him? Jesus said “Children, how difficult it is to enter the kingdom of God!” This week we look at Mark 10 17-31 with Mike.   They said to him, “Then who can be saved?”  Jesus looked at them and said, “With man itis impossibl...

If the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer, sanctify for the purification of the flesh, how much more will the blood of Christ,who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God. Joe took us through Leviticus 16 and parts of Hebrews 9 to remind us of the wonders...

And we’re back in Mark’s Gospel, reading Mark 9 38-41 . Chris reminded us how we often think that we are the best or the only ones.  But, it’s not us.
