    Incredibly dumb spiritual decisions that some people make.

    THE 2003 DARWIN AWARDS (Mark 8:13-21) Introduction: 1. Have you ever known someone who just did not get it? Please do not answer that out loud. a. In out text, Jesus’ disciples do not get it and Jesus questions their lack of understanding. b. They had been with Jesus. They had listened to him ...read more

    Our Daily Bread

    Jesus is the Bread of Life and is always enough for our daily needs. Not only that but He leaves enough overflowing fragments for us to bless others.

    OUR DAILY BREAD The first part of the 8th chapter of Mark tells us of the great miracle that Jesus performed when he fed 4000 men with only 7 loaves of bread and few small fish. (In one other instance in Matthew chapter 14, Jesus had fed 5000 with only 5 loaves and two fish.) Right on the heels ...read more

    A Lesson In Trusting

    Contributed by Norm Beckett on Mar 6, 2001
    based on 79 ratings
     | 4,085 views

    We’re sometimes slow to trust God even though He has always come through in the past.

    A LESSON IN TRUSTING “Be careful”, Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and that of Herod”, (Mark 8: 15). Here we have one of those recurring occasions that take place in the ministry of Jesus - the feeding of a large crowd of people. The people came from near and ...read more

    Jesus Provides Food For The 4,000: The Response Of The Crowds, Pharisees, And Disciples Series

    These four thousand people have probably been eating what little they had with them when they began following Jesus, which probably wasn’t much. They may have found sources of water along the way. But they’re now in a predicament.

    “Oh why didn’t I listen!?" The rich man cries out from the depths of hell, to this very day in 2023. He needed salvation dearly but could not see it. And he looked and saw Lazarus, comforted, in paradise. The rich man in sorrows, why didn’t he listen? He was rich, he was powerful, he did not ...read more

    Do You Get It?

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 11, 2023
     | 1,652 views

    There is nothing that Jesus cannot do. But we can only get the message if we don’t let ourselves be distracted by trivia, and if our relationship with God is healthy.

    One of the reasons people loved to listen to Jesus was that he talked about things they knew about, scenes and events from their everyday lives. But the lives of the people Jesus talked to can seem very far away from our own, sometimes. His illustrations don’t always mean that much to us. What’s ...read more

    In Mark 8:1-26, Mark directs our attention to the people around Jesus who are struggling with spiritual blindness in spite of the signs that they should clearly see and understand.

    Introduction: A. Have you ever noticed how we sometimes experience involuntary blindness? 1. Something might be sitting right in front of us, and yet we don’t see it; like, “where are my keys?” or “I can’t find my cell phone” or “where’s the pepper?” They are right in front of us! B. Sometimes ...read more

    The sermon emphasizes trusting in God's abundant provision and finding joy in spiritual richness, not material possessions.

    Good morning, dear brothers and sisters. What a beautiful day the Lord has made! We are gathered here, not by chance, but by divine design.

    God's Mentality About Money Series

    Contributed by Jim Erwin on Dec 12, 2007

     | 3,556 views

    God always provides what we need, and then some left over – a surplus. But only when we live by faith.

    God’s Mentality About Money Mark 8:13-21 The loaves and fishes event teaches us a lesson on God’s provision. It is clear that the disciples never learned the lesson about God’s provision. Why? Jesus had to remind them on two different occasions. After the feeding of the FOUR thousand (and that ...read more

    False Faith: Faith Amnesia Series

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Oct 14, 2007
    based on 46 ratings
     | 14,132 views

    Faith is about trusting in a person. Faith is not about stuff. It is not about things happening or things not. It is not about things coming together. It is not about a happy feeling or a secure moment or even knowledge - it is about a person.

    Richard Dawkins, the famous Oxford zoologist said, “Faith is the great copout, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, a lack of evidence.” Does Jesus prove Richard Dawkins right in our passage today? Jesus is asked ...read more

    Jesus asks five "perspective questions" that can assist us in overcoming spiritual inertia.

    OVERCOMING THE “SPIRITUAL BLAHS” Mark 8:14-21 Mk 8:14 The disciples had forgotten to bring bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat. Mk 8:15 “Be careful,” Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and that of Herod.” Mk 8:16 They discussed this with one ...read more

    Can the awesome presence of Jesus become too familiar? Looking to Jesus and carrying our own agenda produces problems with vision.

    Read or quote Mark 8. We are half way through Mark’s gospel today. What does Mark do for you and I as readers? Just think of the way we get to be in on all this action in Jesus’ life and ministry. We are allowed to overhear Jesus’ public and private conversations and observe the reactions of ...read more
