What one thing do you lack? Mark 10:17-34 The Rich Young Ruler We are now just four weeks away from Easter Sunday 2018. Easter happens to be on April 1st, April Fool’s Day. I kind of think that God the Father enjoys the irony in that one. Satan really was a fool to think he could kill Jesus ...read more

The Dividends Of Life Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 21, 2018

Following His encounter with the rich, young ruler, Jesus discussed the difficulty of salvation for those distracted by pleasures. We are making an investment in something that eventually will pay dividends. Invest wisely!

SHARP WORDS SPOKEN BY LOVE. Mark 10:17-31. The first three Gospels all report Jesus’ encounter with the character who has become known by the composite name of ‘the rich young ruler’. They all mention that he was ‘rich’ (as in Mark 10:22), but only Matthew mentions that he was ‘young’ ...read more

There is a cost to discipleship, but that cost is dwarfed by the profit that comes when we receive the church family, dysfunctional as it is.
