     | 1,098 views

    Their effectiveness as Jesus' disciples would not happen by default. They would always have to work at it and pray about it.

    ALL, FOR THE ONE Text: Mark 9:38-50 “One of the highlights of the college freshman biology class was the monthly feeding of a caged rattlesnake kept in the laboratory. One time, the entire class gathered around the cage and, in complete silence, watched as the feeding took place. ...read more

  • Inclusion Is What We Need, Not Power Hungry People

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Aug 11, 2021
     | 1,740 views

    Jesus rebuked His disciples because they wanted to keep the power of healing for themselves. This is happening in church today even though Jesus said it is wrong!

    I think that it is sad that when I read this narrative, it made me think about the control the church has held over people for almost 2000 years. The church used only one verse, thus out of context, to control people. Catholics could not own a Bible until 1964 CE. The idea that a person has to ...read more

    NO STUMBLING BLOCKS—Mark 9:38-50 This morning, we face a troubling reality: Many Americans are moving away from Christ and the church. Some are high-profile influencers, who might say they are “done” with church, or “deconstructing” their faith. Others are ordinary people—maybe people we know—who ...read more

  • Don't Offend My Children, Or Else

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Sep 21, 2021
     | 1,575 views

    Even as Jesus suffered offense at the hands of others, every Christian shall likewise suffer. How we respond to this offense is important.

    Don't Offend MY Children, or Else! Mark 9:38-50 It is a bit odd that this week’s gospel text from the lectionary begins with John’s response to what Jesus had just said. It is poor practice to start in the middle of a paragraph. Before we can analyze this text, we need to ask: “What was John ...read more

    According to the artist "the Thinker" is sitting in mute amazement as he contemplates lost people in hell.

    Lizards scatter when they perceive a threat, and they will self-amputate their tail if a predator seizes it. It will leave its tail behind and run but with modified locomotor performance and mechanics. The lizard says to itself: 'It's better to lose my tail than to lose my ...read more

     | 964 views

    ¿En qué está pensando el pensador? Según el artista, "el Pensador" está sentado en mudo asombro mientras contempla a la gente perdida en el infierno.

    Los lagartos se dispersan cuando perciben una amenaza y se auto-amputarán la cola si un depredador se la agarra. Dejará atrás la cola y correrá pero con locomotor y movimientos modificados. El lagarto se dice a sí mismo: "¡Es mejor perder la cola que perder la ...read more

     | 6,041 views

    Each one of us can be that argumentative person; how should we handle them as Christians?

    Before reading our passage this morning in Mark 9, let’s note a few facts: First of all, why did Jesus leave heaven and come to earth?? Jesus came to earth to become a human being and die for the sin of people! And did Jesus remain dead? To reveal God’s power over life and death, Jesus rose from ...read more
