Mark 1

Written By Lexie Miller

Worship Director Justin Jackson kicks off our new 15-week journey through the Gospel of Mark.

While all of the gospels are clear about who Jesus is, each one also has a unique perspective to offer. Mark puts emphasis on two massive pillars throughout the book: that Jesus is the authoritative Son of God, and that he is the ultimate servant king.

Mark gives us a profound look at what it means to move from slaves to sons, as he shows how Jesus completely flips the worldly script on power. He demonstrates His authority not by demanding to be served but through serving, by touching the untouchable, healing the broken, and ultimately paying a ransom to free us from the master of sin.

Whether you're a long-time follower of Jesus looking for encouragement in your own areas of service, or you're just wondering who Jesus really is, this message is a beautiful reminder that you are deeply loved and seen by the King.
