    Who Do You Say Jesus Is? Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Aug 14, 2014
     | 4,963 views

    The rejection of Jesus comes (painfully) from those who represent God (teachers, elders, etc.). This presents us with a challenge: Do we lead people to like us or to worship God? If it's all about Him, then we must be willing to give everything to Him!

    Who do you say Jesus is? Mark 8:27-33 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - IMP: ...read more
