Mark 1:1 1 The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Lesson Notes The Beginning of the Gospels: Matthew - a genealogy Mark - an announcement Luke - a birth narrative John - a theological statement Three Aspects of Mark's Gospel: 1 It's a "not too late" gospel 2 It's a "do not wait" gospel 3 It's a "speak it straight" gospel NT Wright on the Beginning of Mark's Gospel: “It's as if you are sound asleep and dreaming, when suddenly the door bursts open and a bright light shines full in your face. A voice, breaking in on your dream-world, shouts ‘Wake up! Get up! You'll be late!” And without more ado, the speaker splashes your face with cold water to make the point. Time to stop dreaming and face the most important day of your life.” Unique Features of Mark's Style of Writing: It is written entirely in the present tense. It is the shortest of the four gospels and most fast paced. There is less teaching and more action in Mark's gospel. Mark asks a lot of questions - over 100 questions. Mark uses the word - immediately - 41 times in his gospel. Marcus Borg on Mark's use of the term "Son of God": “We will not fully understand Mark's affirmation that Jesus is the Son of God unless we realize that there was another Son of God in that world. For Christians to call Jesus “the Son of God” directly countered Roman imperialism and its rule of the world that they knew. So, already in the first verse, Mark names the conflict that will by the end of his story lead to the execution of Jesus.”  Discussion Questions 1. How does Mark's personal story—his early failure and later usefulness to God—shape the way we understand the Gospel as a “not too late” message? 2. What does the unique style of Mark's writing (see the examples in lesson notes) tell us about the urgency of the message and mission of Jesus? How does this sense of urgency influence your own faith and action? 3. How does Mark's bold proclamation that Jesus is “the Son of God” directly confront the culture and political power of his time? Discuss what it means to declare allegiance to Jesus in a world with competing loyalties. 4. The sermon compares Mark's Gospel to a college signing day announcement. How does this metaphor help us understand what it means to publicly declare our faith to Jesus? Share personal experiences of making faith “announcements” in your own life.

This teaching is taken from the Acts 10, the story of Peter and Cornelius the Centurion. Both Peter and Cornelius experienced divine encounters through visions. Cornelius sees an angel with a message, Cornelius obeys and has Peter brought to his home. Peter receives a vision in which God gives Peter eyes to see beyond his cultural rules of clean and unclean. Peter was a prisoner of his culture until God gave him a vision of truth and that breakthrough brings Peter to a Gentile's home, Cornelius' home, and Peter, going against the culture, obeys God and enters the house of a Gentile. Barriers were broken as Peter allowed God to broke into his heart. Peter understood that God wants ALL people to know and believe in Him. Peter shares the gospel story with Cornelius and the people gathered to listen. Before Peter was even finished sharing, the Holy Spirit descended onto the group, just like what had happened to the disciples on Pentecost. The ministry to the non-Jewish world takes off because God has intervened and God has directed it! God uses Peter (the apostle to the Jewish people) to bring the Gospel message to Cornelius and opens up the message of Jesus the Messiah to the Gentile world! This story still speaks to us today: 1. Culture or Scripture - am I following my culture or am I following the Scripture? 2. Self or Spirit - will we go with our own plans or will we heed the Spirit of God? 3. Home or World - am I concerned about my own little group, the people I'm comfortable with or will I let God use me to reach all? 4. Works or Gospel - It's not about how good I am, it's about how good God is! Remember: It's about CHRIST ALONE! It's easy to mirror your culture, rather than reflect the teaching of the Living God. God calls us to be faithful and obedient, to be transformed by the renewing of our minds, and thus reflecting the very teachings of Christ. Scripture Romans 12:2; Acts 10 awakeusnow.com

This is how the musician Nick Cave describes Mark's Gospel: It is Mark's Gospel that has truly held me. It is written with such breathless insistence, such compulsive narrative intensity, that one is reminded of a child recounting some amazing tale, piling fact upon fact, as if the whole world depended on it - which, of course, to Mark it did.

Series: Mission - Vision - Values Title: Who We Are, The Gospel: It's All About Jesus! Reference: Romans 1:16-17 Pastor: Brandon Smith

What good is the Gospel- It is good for bringing the nations under the rule and reign of our Triune Lord, who through the Word, calls men, women and children to faith in Christ Jesus by the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit. It is good to bring all tribes, tongues and nations under the rule and reign of Christ and so it is with the Word that we are armed to reach the nations and find our labors fruitful to the ends of which the Scriptures speak - building the Church broad and deep. Let us then be confident and determined to go forth armed with the Sword of the Spirit, and see the world changed for Christ Jesus.

In hard seasons, in mundane moments and everything in between, the Gospel needs to shape our responses, our attitude and our home.  Often we think of the Gospel as something that was important at that moment of salvation. Christ died for me, I'm forgiven...then the Christian life starts. But the Christian life is the Gospel. It affects our work, our marriages, our parenthood, our attitudes, and responses to all that life throws at us. And that's exactly what we are discussing today. Let's dive in!

What is the “goal” of the Christian life? “For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance, as it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better.” – Philippians 1:19-23 Living in light of the Gospel: “It is our obligation, as people created and owned by God, to give him the honor and glory that is due to him, to live and speak and act and think in a way that recognizes and acknowledges his authority over us. We are made by him, owned by him, dependent on him, and therefore accountable to him.” - What is the Gospel? By Greg Gilbert Finding Glory in the Mundane Moments You see, I struggle sometimes with finding worth in the mundane. I struggle finding glory in the ordinary. I sometimes struggle knowing how the second load of dishes or sweeping the sidewalk is worth anything.  Do you ever struggle with this? Do you ever struggle knowing how our work in the home matters to God? Both of these books this year have helped with that. I feel like I’ve gone on a similar journey as the author has in Glory in the Ordinary. I love how she’s open about her struggle with this as well: “Like all major changes, my early days as a stay-at-home mom rocked me to the core. I had gone from days filled with fruitful conversations to days filled with crying and blank stares from two needy babies. Over time I began to see that being home had inherent value, but what I couldn’t immediately see was how the work at home had value as well. It was not merely about staying home to take care of the children (which made sense to my exhausted brain); I had to learn there was value in the laundry and cleaning too.” – Glory in the Ordinary page 25 This is the impactful part, she goes on to say: “What I’ve learned is that God is glorified in the mundane work as much as he is in the magnificent. In fact, it is in the mundane moments, the moments where we live each and every day, where we come to see the true greatness of God and his love for us.” – Glory in the Ordinary page 25 Life is lived out in these tiny moments. I may not always have the mental capacity to remember and realize that I am doing big, grand work, even when I’m scrubbing toilets, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t true. Something that I love throughout her book is this concept of how our culture views work in the home versus how God does. Our culture views work as simply a means to an end. We work just enough to be able to afford leisure time. And we look down on those blue collar jobs or work that seem to have little worth, such as workingMcDonald’s. We value big important jobs. We admire people who are in charge of large ministries who are making changes in the world. That’s not a bad thing to admire those people, but we tend to put all our value into these jobs or those people. So we tend to think then,

Blake White continues the preaching series on the book of Romans with a sermon titled "The Transforming Power of the Gospel: It is Written" based on Romans 15:8-13

Here's the Gospel: It’s like we’ve been brought before the throne of God and every single one of our mistakes is paraded out in front of us. With every instance we cower closer and closer to the floor. And at the end, Christ looks at us, really looks at us, and says, “It’s okay. I forgive you.” That is radical. It's Awe-Full.

Each one of us have things that we hold dear to our hearts. Perhaps it is a quilt or a piece of furniture passed down through generations. Yet, do we understand the priceless treasure of the Gospel? It is the one treasure that no one could ever purchase, except Christ.

What is The Gospel? It is the "too good to be true news"! Listen to Prophet Carn explain grace through the Gospel of Jesus Christ in this podcast. (Part 1 of "The Gospel" series)

The Gifts That Keep On GivingSpiritual Gifts are given to each one of us. … they are gifts with a “purpose”!In other words, these gifts are NOT for you! They were given to you to be used for the sake of the Gospel It’s not JUST your spiritual gifts that God wants to use for the Gospel, however. God wants to use ALL that makes you, YOU!Your spiritual giftsYour skillsYour passions/interestswww.prairiebible.org Simple. Authentic. Jesus

Why does Jesus correct Martha in the Gospel? It may not be as simple as you think...

If you attend worship on Good Friday, you’ll no doubt hear Jesus’ dying words in John’s Gospel: “It is finished.” So much was finished there on the cross. It was the end of Jesus’ career, the end of His ministry, the end of His breathing, the end of His life, the end of Jesus Himself.

When Paul says that he is ‘not ashamed of the Gospel’, you might at first think it a very strange thing to say! Why could he possibly be ashamed of the Gospel? It is, as he says, the very power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes. That’s also precisely what we read in Acts 3, as Peter emphasises not only our need to turn to Jesus but that it’s through him that we are saved. So what could Paul be ashamed of? The claim that not only was he a sinner in need of saving, but that God’s own Son would endure a shameful death upon the cross for us. That was, as Paul claims elsewhere (cf. 1 Corinthians 1:23), a stumbling block (or shameful) to the Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles. It just didn’t seem to make any sense, but it was precisely what the world needed. That despite the appearance of failure on the outside, Paul was not ashamed, for he knew that Jesus’ death was actually the victory of God.It is amazing news that whilst God requires us to be righteous, it is by his power that we are made righteous. How do we connect by that? Through faith! That by putting out faith in the Lord Jesus, or by putting our trust in him, we are set right with God. In our daily lives we can often be hesitant to speak of Jesus, perhaps out of fear of embarrassment or being made fun of, but we know the greatest news that the world will ever know! And this isn’t mere knowledge, but Good News that brings salvation to everyone who believes. That’s why Paul wasn’t ashamed, that’s why the Apostles were not ashamed, and that why we, too, should not be ashamed. ALQuestionsWhen was the first time that you realised that Jesus’ death was actually Good News and not bad news?How do you think Paul would have possibly felt ashamed? How can we sometimes be ashamed by being a Christian?How can we abandon any shame that we might sometimes feel?PrayerGracious and loving God, thank you that the Gospel has the power to bring salvation to everyone who believes. Please help us never to feel ashamed but to instead delight in this Good News in every part of our lives. In Jesus name, Amen.

The saving intention of God is the dominant theme of the book of Revelation. That’s why this book is not bad news! It’s Gospel: It’s Good News!

Phylicia was asked a question about how to make the Gospel less offensive, which sparked a lively conversation about how that's not actually possible. But why? If it's good news, what's so offensive? In this episode, we tackle the following: 1. What is the Gospel? It is the story of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. It's the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. 2. Why is the Gospel offensive? We shouldn't try to smooth out that the Gospel is offensive because it's exclusive. Because it points out our sin. Because it requires everything from us. The Gospel offends the flesh. 3. How does the Gospel affect today? Does salvation only affect our eternal life or does it affect life now?

Gripped. Gripped by the Gospel; What is the Gospel? It is the good news that we have forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ that died for our sins and that He was buried and was raised on the third day according to the scriptures. It is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes. What grips our hearts, guides our steps. When we grasp the gospel we begin to grasp the power of His sacrifice. Gripped by His Sacrifice; Do I still consider the cost of Christ. Time does not deplete the power of His sacrifice. Gripped by His Love; God's love produces wholeness and power. God's love produces peace and boldness. When we are gripped in His love, we experience His forgiveness. Gripped by His Forgiveness; Pardon, relief of blame, release and set free. Gripped by His Grace; We are no longer enemies of God. We are now His children. We are partakers of His blessings. We are in right relationship, redeemed. We are secure in Christ. 1Cor 1:18, Rom 1:17, Isa 53:5, Matt 20:28, Heb 10:10, John 1:16, 15:13, Eph 3:19, Philp 4:7, Psa 103:8-12.
