    Herodias thought she won the day when John the Baptist was beheaded.

    Dirty Dancing Mark 6:14-29 John the Baptist had been thrown into prison not long after he had identified Jesus as the Messiah. Having been given the great privilege by God to introduce the bridegroom to God’s people, the bride, John’s role was essentially done. He realized this and said as much in ...read more

    People are hurt by those who hold grudges instead of following the will of God.

    Holding A Grudge Mark 6: 14 – 29 Intro: A Judge was interviewing a woman regarding her pending divorce. He asked, “What are the grounds for your divorce?” She replied, “About 4 acres and a nice little home in the middle of the property with a stream running by.” “No,” he said, “I mean what is ...read more

     | 10,699 views

    This passage in Mark is one of great tragedy. It has been suggested there were actually two deaths revealed - the death of John the Baptist and the death of Herod's conscience.

    A Tragic Death Mark 6: 14-29 Our text today deals with the horrific and tragic death of John the Baptist. Mark discussed the character of John and the tragic reason for his untimely death. The text actually deals with John’s death in retrospect, sometime after it had happened. John’s untimely ...read more

    Happy Birthday Herod!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 14, 2016
     | 9,676 views

    Herod had a birthday party, but ended up paying for it instead of receiving. It's a story of unforgiveness, a seductive dance, and a well-intentioned man who by compromise was pulled into grave sin.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY HEROD! Mk. 6:17-28 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: PLAYPEN 1. A young mother complained to her friend about the difficulties of child rearing, especially the lack of peace and constant pestering by her small children. 2. Her friend smiled and said, "What you need is a playpen to separate ...read more

    Have you ever asked God "Why?" I'm sure that was the question on the lips of John's disciples following the news of his execution.

    This wasn’t the way it was supposed to end. He was the product of a good family, he had been raised worshipping God, he had followed God’s calling, had done God’s work and had preached God’s message and this wasn’t the way it was supposed to end. In a million years he ...read more

    John, and we, need to be prophets to our cultures.

    Martyrdom of John the Baptist August 29, 2011 Testimony of the Saints Popular culture almost always gets everything wrong. Thus today’s celebration, which in the pre-Vatican II liturgy was a feast, not a memorial, is totally misinterpreted by pop culture. In the view of the secular world, ...read more

    Pride, Lust And More Sin

    Contributed by James Kirkland on Apr 4, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,065 views

    The decisions we make in haste brings to the fore front, our pride, and ego that can and will cause sin to over power our better judgement.

    When we give our word, we are to stand-by it. James tells us that our Yes be yes and our No to be no. But what happens when we make a decision that turns out to be wrong? Do you continue in the wrong or do you change your mind? Many of our decisions would be different if we had slept on them over ...read more

    Did you hear about the man who created a trap and then became the prey of his own invention. Herod is a prime example of that man. Unfortunately, there are many others in this world who are doing the very same thing.

    The Weaving of a Woeful Web Mark 6:14-29 (Matt. 14:1-9) Jesus was going around working miracles and wonders. Everyone was taking notice. Many were speaking up and expressing their opinion of who they believed that He was. Some believed Him to be a prophet, others said that He was Elijah. ...read more

    Who among us is better than Herod? Who among us has not twisted events, facts, details, to suit our own purposes? Who among us has not placed more value on our image than on human need? Who among us has not intentionally given in to easier of the two choi

    I'll admit to you all that I had a difficult time with this passage. I spent weeks staring at it , researching it, praying about it, looking for that point of brilliance that would dazzle and amaze you all, once more showing off my preaching skills, once more being the "golden boy." But I drew a ...read more

    The Kingdom of God goes head to head with the kingdoms of this world.

    A CLASH OF KINGDOMS. Mark 6:14-29. As a unit, Mark 6:14-29 begins and ends with people “having heard” something. Herod “heard” about Jesus and His disciples (Mark 6:14), and drew his own conclusions from it (Mark 6:16). John’s disciples “heard” about John’s death, and acted accordingly (Mark ...read more

    We have a choice-be like John or be like Herod. Will we be weak like Herod, easy tempted and easily manipulated, or we will be strong in our moral convictions like John?

    How many of you have ever watched a horror movie or read a horror story? It’s not always a pleasant experience, is it?

    Unbelief Series

    Contributed by Joel Preston on May 17, 2012
     | 10,252 views

    One of the central themes in this section of Mark's Gospel is the unbelief of people who came into contact with Jesus. God takes unbelief very seriously, and so should we.

    The Gospel of Mark #15 – “Unbelief” Mark 6:1-29 Intro – 1. Can anyone guess what my favorite animal is? The Platypus! 2. ILL – Josh McDowell writes, “People refuse to believe that which they don't want to believe, in spite of evidence. When explorers first went ...read more
