    Faith or unbelief determines what we see when we look at Jesus. Jesus brings us to the valley of decision where we either become his followers or his enemies.

In chapter two of Mark we have four more vignettes in Jesus’ life recorded for us. In each of these Jesus expresses his authority in both freeing and disturbing ...read more

    Jesus was controversial because he was aligned with the truth and put God's Word and work above the inherited traditions that had accumulated over the centuries. So we should be bound by Scripture and mission.

    Some of us have to lower our expectations in order to find what we are looking for, others of us need to change them completely

    Most of us have high expectations of Jesus, but Mark chapter 2 records a story of a man who has lowered expectations….literally. One thing we quickly learn is that Jesus doesn’t care to meet expectations, only needs. It a ridiculous account of a guy who is carried by four of his ...read more
