    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,118 views

    We do not know the day and the hour when Jesus will return, so we also need to keep awake and be watchful. This message is not just for the early disciples, but for us all.

    THE LITTLE APOCALYPSE. Mark 13:1-37. I. Mark 13, and its equivalents in Matthew 24 and Luke 21:5-36, is sometimes entitled “the little apocalypse.” This passage is poised between Jesus’ teaching in the Temple (Mark 12), and the account of the Passion (Mark 14-15).

     | 2,890 views

    Our Father in Heaven, Holy Is Your Name. How do we start our our prayers? Do we just rush right in without acknowledging Who we are addressing. Do we come with gratitude and with reverence and awe? Or do we just barge right in with demands?
