Susan Haynes | Mark 1:14-34
After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God. ‘The time has come,’ he said. ‘The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!’ As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people.’ At once they left their nets and followed him.
As Susan points out, the whole reading contains 6 events of note in just 20 verses. In his ministry Jesus proclaimed the coming of his kingdom not just through words but dramatic actions. Jesus shows us, in vivid terms, what it means for heaven to break into our world.
The recording begins with the reading from John Davies.
