Marriage is taking a hit! More people are delaying marriage, some are skipping it altogether, and divorce remains common—673,989 divorces were reported in 2022 alone. With so many opinions on marriage and divorce today, what does Jesus actually say? Is divorce ever okay? What about remarriage? In Mark 10, Jesus is confronted with these very questions, and His response challenges the way we think about marriage, commitment, and God’s design.

Two words that Jesus addressed often—but are rarely discussed today—are sin and hell. In Mark 9, Jesus teaches His disciples about the seriousness of sin, where it leads, and the urgency of fleeing from it. His vivid warnings call us to take sin seriously in our own lives and to help others do the same by pointing them toward the hope and redemption found in Him.

Halftime in sports is a chance to regroup, reset, and refocus—and Mark 8 serves a similar purpose in the Gospel. Positioned halfway through the book, it marks a turning point where Jesus reveals the cost of following Him. In this pivotal chapter, He challenges His followers to deny themselves, take up their cross, and fully embrace the path of discipleship. This moment calls us to pause and ask: Are we truly ready to follow?

Have you ever felt like you’re checking all the right boxes in your faith but still feel distant from God? In Mark 7, Jesus speaks to this struggle, calling us to look beyond routines and find a faith that brings us closer to Him.

If you could attend a MasterClass, what subject would you choose, and who would you want to teach it? In Mark 4, Jesus offers a powerful lesson on the Kingdom of God. As you join the crowd and His disciples, you hear Him share simple, everyday stories—parables that reveal how the Kingdom of God begins and grows. Just as Jesus invited His first listeners to respond, these parables challenge us to reflect deeply and take action today.

In this sermon, Jesus challenges the Pharisees by breaking the boxes they place around others. He offers grace to the outcasts, like Levi the tax collector, calling them into new life while the Pharisees plot against Him. Levi’s decision to leave everything behind and follow Jesus shows the life-changing power of stepping into a new life with Christ. Jesus shows that no one is beyond His reach.
