    Help My Unbelief: Mark 9:14-29

    Help My Unbelief: Mark 9:14-29

    Belief and Unbelief are often pitted against one another. We’re inundated with thoughts, comments, sermons, and blog posts that tell of the evils of unbelief. We try to avoid unbelief at all costs.

    But what if unbelief wasn’t an enemy to belief.

    What if unbelief was actually an acknowledged part of the belief process. How differently would our prayers look if we embraced our unbelief and even brought it to Jesus to take care of?

    In Mark 9:14-29 we read of a desperate father who needed a miracle from Jesus. His faith may have been looked down on by modern Christians, but he got exactly what he needed from Jesus. What was his secret?

    He embraced his unbelief and he brought it to Jesus!

    Stay tuned today as Pastor B points out 5 helpful questions that are worth wrestling with as we deal with faith, prayer, belief, and unbelief.

    Transfiguration: Mark 9:1-13

    Transfiguration: Mark 9:1-13

    How do you handle the “good times?”

    How do you handle the “bad times?”

    We all tend to hold onto the good times and try to avoid the bad times altogether. It’s human nature to avoid pain and suffering and to embrace joy and comfort.

    In Mark 9:1-13 we read of Jesus showing his glory to 3 of his disciples on top of a mountain. This is commonly referred to as The Transfiguration. It was a powerful moment where the disciples got a preview of the Glory that is to come.

    But Jesus didn’t stay on top of the mountain. He came back down and ultimately headed to The Cross. Today as we look at Mark 9:1-13 we’re going to see how important it is to cling to the right things as we look toward the Ultimate glory of eternity with Christ.

    Lose Everything - Mark 8:27-38

    Lose Everything - Mark 8:27-38

    What does it mean that Jesus is The Christ? What exactly is His role as the Messiah? How does that impact His followers? How does The Cross play out in the daily life of the Christian?

    Join us today as we look at Mark 8:27 - 38 and seek to find the Bible's answer to those questions. Today you'll see:

    -Peter's confession that Jesus is The Christ
    -Jesus telling Peter "Get behind me Satan"
    -The High Cost of Discipleship
    -How trying to hold onto your life really is causing you to miss life

    Today's message explores what Biblical Christianity looks like and you may be surprised that it's not necessarily what you may see in popular culture or in TV sermons.

    Stay Right There

    Stay Right There

    Everybody wants clarity in life. We want clarity in our finances. We want clarity in our relationships. We want clarity in our careers. Clarity is important.

    The most important area in our lives where we need clarity is in our spiritual lives. It's critically important that we see Jesus clearly.

    Join us today as we unpack Mark 8:22-26 to see how the Gospel of Mark talks about spiritual blindness and how Jesus brings True clarity.

    Do You Get It? Mark 8:1-21

    Do You Get It? Mark 8:1-21

    A constant theme that subtly runs throughout the pages of the Gospel of Mark is the inability of people to truly see who Jesus really is. As a matter of fact his very disciples are the ones who are portrayed as missing the significance of Jesus' miracles and teachings most often. They show us that proximity doesn't equal perception. They also show us that God can still use us even if we don't fully "get it."

    In today's message we look at Mark 8:1-21 and ask ourselves this key question: Do I really get it?

    Open Up To God - Mark 7:31-37

    Open Up To God - Mark 7:31-37

    How open to God are you?

    In a world full of voices the most important voice to hear is the voice of God. It's the voice of encouragement. It's the voice of direction. It's the voice of healing. It's the voice of love.

    Join us as we journey through the Gospel of Mark and see how Jesus wants to open our ears to the voice of God and what that means for our lives.
