We continue our Gospel of Mark series by discovering how our perspective shapes the way we interpret life's challenges. As the winds rise and the exhausted disciples struggle forward, Jesus meets them with a powerful invitation to see through the eyes of faith, an invitation that still calls to us today. Scripture Referenced: Mark 6:45-56
Pastor Chris Stuffleben
Dr. Mitchell reviews the Pharisees accusing Jesus of being possessed by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons.So, Let's hear Jesus' statement that ‘all sins will be forgiven the sons of men and whatever blasphemies they utter”.Jesus died for you and me, people, sons of men, first of all. He died for people, to take away our sins. And because of His death on the cross, God is able to forgive ALL SINS. That includes yours and mine. Salvation is no longer a matter of the sin, it is a matter of the Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. If you have not yet, will you believe in God's Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. He loves YOU!In doing so, you will have done the will of God. This brings about a new relationship,Here is Dr. Mitchell, Mark 3:29.This is the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
Mark 1:21-34. February 8th, 2026. Pastor Bobby Pringle
Mark will describe how the Pharisees traveled all the way from Jerusalem down to Galilee up north, about 100 miles or so. They then begin to accuse Jesus our Lord as being demon possessed. Jesus calls out the contradiction of such a statement. How can satan cast out satan? A house or kingdom divided against itself cannot stand but comes to an end. These were sinning the unpardonable sin, saying that Jesus was controlled by Satan rather than by the Holy Spirit. They were in effect, blaspheming against the Holy Spirit at that time in Israel's history. This will mark the time when our Lord is rejected by that nation with no hope of His Kingdom being established at that time.Dr. Mitchell will discuss the ‘unpardonable sin' which is of concern to some believers today, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Mark 3:22.
Knowing that a plot was being formed against him, Jesus, with His disciples withdrew to the sea. Great crowds followed Him from 7 different regions.So, a boat was prepared for the the Lord that He might teach from it. However, once again, unclean spirits were yelling out who He was. But Jesus shut them up.Mark next presents, our Lord as choosing his 12 apostles, which are all named.He chose them to be with Him, first of all. He then gives them the commission followed by the authority to fulfill it.Then Mark tells us that Jesus was so busy, he did not have time to eat. And His family thought He had lost His senses so they set out to take Him home.Let's turn to Mark 3:6 with Dr. Mitchell. Your listening to the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
The Gospel of Mark - The Great Physicians - Roydon Frost - (Sunday 08 February 2026) by Christ Church Midrand
Mark now gives gives two episodes with Jesus demonstrating that He is Lord of the sabbath. In the first, Jesus is confronted by the Pharisees as to why Jesus' disciples were doing what they considered to be“unlawful on the sabbath”. They were viewed as doing work on the sabbath by plucking the heads of wheat and eating them. Jesus declared that the sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. Jesus, the Son of Man is Lord of the sabbath.The second episode shows Jesus healing a man on the sabbath. Here the religious rulers were waiting to accuse the Lord of a violation by healing a man on the sabbath. Jesus didn't disappoint. He healed the man's hand. This then, gave rise to a collusion between enemies.Here is Dr. Mitchell, Mark 2:23, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
Jesus is rejected in his hometown—not because he lacks power, but because their hearts are closed. People's unbelief doesn't change who Jesus is. Jesus is our Savior even when he's misunderstood. Our doubts or other people's opinions don't cancel Jesus' authority or compassion. God doesn't measure you by how others respond to you. Our job is not to control outcomes; it's to trust and obey. God loves working through everyday faithfulness.Series Summary: Fast-paced, urgent, and relentlessly focused on Jesus, the Gospel of Mark shows us not just what Jesus said, but what he did. Written for a Roman world hungry for power, Mark introduces a surprising King - one who comes to serve, to suffer, and to give his life for many. Over the coming weeks, we'll walk this road with Jesus, from the wilderness to the cross, discovering how the Servant-King's actions reveal the true good news - and what it means to follow him as disciples who take up our own cross and trust him with our lives.Add St. Marcus as your church on the Church Center App!Fill out our online connection cardHow can we pray for you?

Before Jesus changes your life, He prepares your heart.
Pastor Julius continues our sermon series in the Gospel of Mark by finishing up Mark 6 by unpacking verses 45-56.
What if you only had one sentence to introduce Jesus to someone — what would you say?This Sunday at New Promise Church we begin our new sermon series through the Gospel of Mark — the fast-moving, straight-to-the-point account of the good news about Jesus Christ. Mark doesn't start with a long backstory. He starts with a bold declaration and a call to prepare for the King.Join us as we open Mark 1 and discover why the gospel is not just good advice — it is good news that demands a response. Sunday at 10 AM.At New Promise Church you will see people of all ages, from a variety of backgrounds, and at different stages of their spiritual journey. We desire to draw closer to Jesus by understanding who He is and what He has done for us.
In Mark 2:18-22 Mark records the question from some people who asked why Jesus's disciples were not fasting.After all, the disciples of the Pharisees and those of John the Baptist were fasting.Jesus gives His answer by way of an analogy of the relationship between a bridegroom and his wedding guests.Our Lord then goes on to give an example of the practical reality of how unshrunk cloth on a old garment reacts. Then He also does the same thing with regards to how new wine, placed inside an old dried-up wine skin, affects the wine skin.Our Lord Jesus brings out the difference between the new and old, between the law and grace. As John wrote, John 1:17, “For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.”Here is Dr. Mitchell, Mark 2:18 on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
We continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark with a powerful, multilayered story of two people urgently seeking Jesus's help. As their stories intertwine, we'll discover the kind of faith that truly gets Jesus's attention—and what that means for our own walk with Him. Scripture Referenced: Mark 5:21-43

In the parable of a vineyard, Jesus exposes God's generous provision, humanity's refusal to give Him what He is owed, and the judgment that follows when the Son is rejected.We'll consider whether we live as grateful tenants under God's care or resist His rightful claim on our lives.
Teaching by Elijah Dally
This teaching explores Jesus' healing power in Mark 1:29–39, where healing is not just a miracle but a pathway to restored lives and effective service. We're reminded that we all carry wounds - physical, emotional, relational, or spiritual - and yet Jesus has authority to heal the whole person. This message traces God's healing work across Scripture, wrestles honestly with the complexity of unanswered prayers, and points us toward resurrection hope. Ultimately, we discover that healing isn't just for relief - it prepares us to serve from wholeness, not from hurt. // SCRIPTURE REFERENCES // Mark 1.29-39, Exodus 15.22–26, 2 Kings 5.1–14, Mark 5:25–34 More info at the Bible Project:https://bibleproject.com/videos/mark/ // TAKE A NEXT STEP // Want to visit or discover more about Columbia View?

A Few Minutes In The Gospel Of Mark Part 20: Who Is The Greatest? - English only. In Mark chapter 9, Messiah's disciples argue about who is the greatest. The context of their discussion sheds light on our frailty in this area. This is a rebroadcast of a podcast originally recorded November 7, 2022.
As Dr Mitchell will mention the need for prayer on behalf of the ministry we too ask for your intercession on behalf of the Unchanging Word Bible broadcast and we do thank you for your prayer support in this ministry.In this passage Mark chapter 2 verses 13 through 20 we hear the Savior calling Levi a tax collector to follow him.Levi is the Hebrew name for the disciple we now know as Matthew the author of the very first gospel.Well then Levi invited Jesus and his disciples to his house to dine with him and his friends. And Jesus, in spite of the criticism from the religious rulers, said he came to call sinners and not the righteous to repentance.Next Jesus is then confronted with a question about fasting right here during the feast.Why doesn't Jesus' disciples fast like the other disciples?Let's join Dr. Mitchell in Mark chapter 2 verse 13 with Jesus the sinner's friend.You're listening to the Unchanging Word Bible broadcast.
We continue in Mark 2:1-12 with savior's demonstrated authority.Both Matthew 9 and Luke 5 present this same incident of four men making a way to the savior through the roof of the house where Jesus was teaching.The problem the scribes and pharisees had was their ignorance of the savior and His divine authority. It is easy to say words that declare the forgiveness of sins, but only the Lord Jesus has the divine authority to not only declare it, but to make it happen. Our Lord demonstrated the divine authority of God in commanding the paralytic man to rise up, take his stretcher and go home. He did just that in the presence of all the people. The people were completely astounded by this miracle in which Jesus demonstrated His Deity and forgiveness of sins.Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast, Mark 2:5.
As betrayal is being planned in secret, an act of costly devotion unfolds in the open. In Mark 14:1–9, a woman pours out everything she has on Jesus—and her worship is criticized as wasteful until Jesus declares it beautiful and eternally significant. This week, Pastor Korey shows how true worship flows from recognizing Christ's worth, and why a Savior who willingly gives Himself to death is worthy of total, unreserved devotion.
In this and the next lesson, we will see the Lord Jesus asserting His authority to both heal and to forgive sins.The people were so crowded around the savior that some men could not get to Him. They put their faith to work by making an opening in the roof. Why? They were bearing a friend on a stretcher who needed to be healed from his paralysis.Jesus saw their faith and said to the paralytic, “Your sins are forgiven”. Notice, Jesus sees the faith and forgives the sins. Some professional scribes doubted His statement. So, once again, the Lord demonstrates His same authority to both heal and to forgive sins.Jesus has divine authority to forgive your sin and mine.Let's turn to Mark 2:1 with Dr. Mitchell speaking of the savior's authority to forgive sin. This is the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
In verse 35 of Mark 1, Mark shows us the Savior rising very early in the morning. He went to a desolate place and there He prayed. The Lord spent time with God His Father before the busy day began.Do you know that Jesus is even now praying for each and every believer. He prays for those who draw near to God through Him in order to keep each believer saved forever. Read Hebrews 7:25.Mark next presents Christ having authority over leprosy. Dr. Mitchell observes that Jesus didn't heal lepers, He cleansed them. Here our Lord reached out and touched the leper. Jesus can cleanse you, my friend. And He is willing to do so completely and forever.Let's turn to Mark 1:35 with our teacher, Dr. Mitchell who shows us the savior's compassion.Your listening to the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
This week, we'll study Mark 5:21-43 under the theme “Faith for Something Better.” When everything feels too late and too broken to fix, Jesus meets us in the chaos and calls us to trust him—not just for relief, but for something better.Series Summary: Fast-paced, urgent, and relentlessly focused on Jesus, the Gospel of Mark shows us not just what Jesus said, but what he did.

Mark 1:14-20. February 1, 2026. Pastor Bobby Pringle
This message unpacks the story in Mark 2:1-12, where Jesus meets a paralytic brought to Him amid a crowded room, first addressing the man's deeper spiritual need by declaring “Your sins are forgiven.” This declaration reveals Jesus' divine authority to forgive sins—something that shocked onlookers and challenged religious norms—and highlights that true healing begins with restoration to God, not merely physical relief. The sermon emphasises that all of us come to Jesus with something “wrong” in our lives—whether guilt, shame, or spiritual paralysis—and that the gospel invites us to trust His word above our lived experience. Ultimately, it calls believers and non-believers to recognise Jesus' power to transform hearts and to find freedom from the burdens they carry.
Jesus invites all of his followers to participate in his ministry. We continue our series through the Gospel of Mark, as we reflect on what it means to be ready, get ready, and stay ready as we join Jesus in his work in our lives. Scripture Referenced: Mark 6:7-13

Every life is lived under authority; the real question is whose? In Mark 11:27–33, Jesus is confronted in with a question meant to trap him: “By what authority are you doing these things?” When Jesus' authority collides with our autonomy, how will we respond? Jesus' authority is not a threat to our joy, but the very means of our salvation.
Teaching by Jim Dalrymple
Jesus steps into a synagogue and reveals a stunning truth: His authority isn't just in His teaching - it sets people free. As Jesus confronts the darkness gripping a man's life, we're reminded that no one is too stuck, too bound, or too far gone for His freedom. // SCRIPTURE REFERENCES // Mark 1.21-28 More info at the Bible Project: https://bibleproject.com/videos/mark/ // TAKE A NEXT STEP // Want to visit or discover more about Columbia View?

Costly Discipleship - Pastor Chris Stuffleben - February 1, 2026
For the prominence of its place in Christian theology, heaven remains a mystery. Glimpses of it can be mined in the Scripture. Our songs are filled with longings for it. We confess our belief in it. But what it actually is and what it will be like are frustratingly elusive. It's especially hard when death intrudes. Whether we bury a loved one too early or whether we finally succumb to the ravages of old age, we want to know what lies on the other side of the final breath. This week, Jesus takes on yet another delegation of Jewish religious leaders asking disingenuous questions designed to frustrate and humiliate him. But his answer gives us some of the clearest and most hopeful information we have about the next life and our being known in it.
