    Chapter 9 | Faith, Doubt and Finding God in Everyday Life | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    Can faith and doubt coexist? And what if some of our most meaningful spiritual experiences happen when we least expect them? In Chapter 9 of the Gospel of Mark, Rev. Dr. Luke Lindon and Rev. Meghan Malone explore the Transfiguration of Jesus, a father's powerful plea to help his unbelief, and Jesus' radical teaching that true greatness comes through humility and service. Along the way, they discuss spiritual mountaintop moments, the importance of welcoming others, and how fear, exclusion, and unhealthy habits can keep us from experiencing the fullness of life. It's a thoughtful, often humorous conversation about finding God in everyday moments, embracing uncertainty, and discovering a faith rooted in love, community, and compassion.

    Chapter 8 | Compassion, Power and the Cost of Discipleship | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    What does it really mean to follow Jesus, and why do even his closest disciples struggle to understand him? In Chapter 8 of Mark, Rev. Dr. Luke Lindon and Rev. Meghan Malone explore the feeding of the 4,000, the healing of a blind man, and Peter's declaration that Jesus is the Messiah. Along the way, they discuss the dangers of greed, the misuse of religious and political power, and Jesus' radical call to compassion, generosity, and service. It's a thought-provoking conversation about faith, economic justice, and what it means to take up your cross in today's world.

    Chapter 7 | Tradition, Compassion and an Open Heart | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    What happens when religious rules get in the way of loving people? In this episode of Rev’d Up, Meghan and Luke explore Mark chapter 7, where Jesus challenges religious hypocrisy, questions traditions that overshadow compassion, and turns attention toward what comes from the heart. From the bold response of the Syrophoenician woman to the healing of a man who is deaf and has difficulty speaking, they consider how these encounters challenge assumptions about who belongs. Can an outsider teach us something we need to hear? And what happens when being “right” becomes more important than caring for our neighbors? With humor, honest questions, and an accessible approach to Bible study, Megan and Luke invite us to listen more closely, hold our certainty more loosely, and make room for unexpected grace.

    Chapter 6 | Faith, Fear and the Power of Sharing | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    What happens when faith challenges expectations, confronts power, and brings people together? In Chapter 6 of the Gospel of Mark, Rev. Dr. Luke Lindon and Rev. Meghan Malone explore one of the most action-packed chapters yet. From Jesus being rejected in his hometown and sending his disciples into the world to the death of John the Baptist, the feeding of the 5,000, and Jesus walking on water, this chapter is filled with powerful moments. Along the way, Luke and Meghan discuss the courage to challenge authority, the importance of trusting others, and how compassion and sharing can transform strangers into a community.

    Chapter 5 | Healing, Restoration and the People Jesus Refuses to Pass By | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    Rev’d Up with Meghan and Luke continues its journey through the Gospel of Mark, one chapter at a time. In Chapter 5 of Mark, Jesus crosses boundaries again and again, moving into Gentile territory, restoring a man tormented by Legion, stopping for a woman whose suffering has gone unseen for twelve years, and raising Jairus’s daughter when all hope appears lost. Along the way, Meghan and Luke explore what these stories reveal about power, trust, community, exclusion, and the people Jesus refuses to overlook. The conversation also asks a deeply practical question: what if the interruptions we are tempted to rush past are actually the ministry? Jesus repeatedly makes room for people on the margins, showing that restoration is not a distraction from the work. It is the work.

    Chapter 4 | Jesus and the Mystery of the Kingdom | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    What does it mean to truly hear the message of the kingdom of God? Luke and Megan explore Jesus’ parables of the sower and the mustard seed, reflecting on faith, justice, and how small things can grow into something powerful. Then, as a storm threatens the disciples’ boat, Jesus calms the sea and leaves them asking: Who is this?

    Chapter 3 | Jesus and the Breaking of Boundaries | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    In Chapter 3, Jesus heals on the Sabbath, calls his twelve disciples, and draws crowds so large that even his family worries he has lost his mind. But beneath these fast-moving scenes, Mark reveals a deeper conflict: Jesus is challenging religious authority, social exclusion, and the boundaries of family itself. What does it mean to do good when rules get in the way? Who gets welcomed back into the community? And what does Jesus mean when he says, “Who are my mother and my brothers?” As we explore the binding of the strong man, the danger of calling good evil, and the radical idea of chosen family, we ask what this chapter might still be saying to us today.

    Chapter 2 | Jesus and a New Way of Faith | Exploring the Gospel of Mark

    Jesus forgives sins, heals a paralyzed man and challenges the religious establishment in Mark chapter 2. Luke and Megan explore why Jesus chooses tax collectors and outsiders, redefines the Sabbath and introduces something radically new. Is this the beginning of a movement that will change everything?
