    Jesus charges Peter as they chat around the campfire

    One of my favorite characters in the Bible is Peter. I guess it’s because I can relate to him so much. He tries to do the right things and say the right words but often stumbles along the way. He was just a simple fisherman that was handed the most important assignment any man could have. ...read more

    Jesus touches those whom society has abandoned. No one is beyond the reach of Christ; and no one should be beyond the reach of the church either.

    In our text, Jesus meets a man with leprosy. This man had been abandoned by society. According to the laws and traditions of the day, leprosy reduced a man to nothing. Everywhere he went, he had to declare his uncleanness. No one would dare get close to him. Touching him was not even considered. ...read more

And today, sadly, we get to the end of Mark 6. I love this chapter, because it is vintage Mark. What I mean by that is that God used Mark to ...read more

    What’s your favourite thing about Easter? Is it the candy? Colouring eggs? Getting a new outfit to wear for the occasion?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 31, 2025
     | 210 views

    Grace crosses forbidden borders to restore what systems abandon; Jesus speaks order into chaos, reclaiming the image of God within us.

    There are moments in Scripture when heaven steps across an invisible border, and the entire order of creation trembles. This is one of them. The Gospel of Mark says, “They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.” That sentence may sound geographical, but it’s ...read more

    As a nation we are abandoning the moral law written into our hearts by God. It’s almost too much to hear it without weeping.
