November 20, 2016 Mountain-top experiences – we’ve all had them. Times when we experienced the grace and presence of Jesus in remarkable ways. Maybe it was a time of summer camp when we got away from the routines of school and summer vacation and were immersed in spiritual activities. Great music, challenging speakers, compelling […]
MARK 9:9-13
October 30, 2016 If you go up to one of the youth rooms, you’ll find a number of great posters put together by Tim Challies – an author and blogger I really like. This is one of those posters – it’s entitled “The End of the World as We Know It” – emphasis on, […]
MARK 9:1-8
October 16, 2016 We’ve spent the last couple of weeks in our study of Mark talking about suffering – seemingly bad news. First, Jesus said to His disciples, “I know you think you know what the Messiah came to do. But you have no idea. Now that you know I’m the Christ, let me […]
MARK 8:34-38
October 2, 2016 Recently, I noticed a couple had quit coming to Alliance, so I called to follow up. The wife answered the phone and I said, just wanted to check in and see if everything was okay. She said, well, since you asked, I’ll tell you. A few years ago, the tone of […]
MARK 8:31-33
September 18, 2016 The story is told of a man who went to see his doctor for his annual physical. After some tests, the next day, the man returned to the doctor, who had somber look on his face. “Well,” the doctor said, “I have some bad news, and some really bad news.” “What’s […]
MARK 8:27-30
September 4, 2016 School has been in for a couple of weeks now – long enough for you to know which classes you like, which ones you don’t. Which ones have lots of homework, which ones don’t. Which ones will be a breeze, which ones won’t. Which teachers you like, which ones you don’t. […]
MARK 8:11-26
August 28, 2016 We’ve been in the Gospel of Mark two weeks shy of a year now. We’re about halfway done – in fact, we reach a major turning point in the book in chapter 8. We know well by now Mark has written his gospel to prove Jesus is the Christ, the Son […]
MARK 8:1-10
August 21, 2016 One of the doctrines which we as evangelical believers hold closely is the doctrine of Scriptural inerrancy. What that means is we believe the Bible, as originally written in Hebrew and Greek, was inspired by God in such a way that every word is without error and therefore true, faithful and […]
MARK 7:31-37
August 14, 2016 I want to invite you to a party this morning. I do so, because you’re invited – you’re on the guest list. We arrive today at a passage in our study of the book of Mark that, on the surface, is going to look very familiar – perhaps even redundant. The […]
MARK 7:24-30
August 7, 2016 Have you ever been reading the Bible and come across a passage you didn’t understand – a really tough one that caused you to say, “Nu-uh! That doesn’t sound right”? The passage before us today is such a text for me. In fact, I have a book in my library entitled, […]
