Passions, possessions and position. Those are the three “P”'s we're looking at in Mark chapter ten. We looked at passions last time, and today we'll begin a look at possessions. There are between ten and fifteen million cars junked in the United States each year. Can you believe it? Our “stuff” never lasts very long... so what does?

Who is this Jesus who welcomes children with open arms and challenges the rich with hard truth? In Mark 10:13–22, we see the contrast between childlike faith and clinging to control. This week, we're exploring what it really means to receive the Kingdom—and why sometimes the thing we won't let go of is the very thing keeping us from Jesus.
Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley will take us to Mark chapter ten, where the subject turns to marriage and divorce. When is remarriage permissible? Have you ever wondered what God has to say in answer to that question? Today, Lloyd will help us reason through that issue.

Mark chapter ten is about as contemporary as this morning's headlines, as it deals with a problem that is commonplace in the year 2025 - divorce. Back in the first century, men were divorcing their wives left and right, and the Pharisees asked Jesus if that was lawful. We'll see what our Lord had to say on the matter on this edition of Bridging the Gap
Text: Mark 10:32–45 In this message, Coleton draws out three defining qualities Jesus desires in His followers. As Jesus journeys to the cross, He pauses to tell His disciples what He wants them to become. In the same way a father might shape the identity of his child (like Coleton does with “bro trips” for his son), Jesus shapes the identity of His people. 1. He Wants the Cross to Be Central Jesus again reminds His disciples of His coming suffering (v.32–34), but they respond by asking for glory and reward (v.35–37). Coleton points out how easy it is to approach Jesus expecting an easier life, rather than embracing the call to die to self. • If the cross isn't central, we'll misinterpret hardship as failure, punishment, or evidence that God has let us down. • But suffering is part of the path. Like Jesus, we too will walk through pain. The cross reminds us that hardship isn't punishment—it's purpose. “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross and follow me.” (Mark 8:34) When the cross is central: • We won't expect an easy life. • We won't minimize others' pain. • We'll learn to suffer well and bring real comfort to others who suffer. 2. He Wants Us to Be Set Apart In verses 42–44, Jesus tells His followers: “Not so with you.” Coleton emphasizes that Jesus isn't asking for moral superiority or judgment over the world, but difference. Christians should live in contrast to worldly values—not through self-righteousness but through humility, sacrifice, forgiveness, generosity, and peace. Some examples of a “Not so with you” life: • The world seeks credit; Christians serve quietly. • The world holds grudges; Christians forgive. • The world avoids reconciliation; Christians fight for it. • The world fears the future; Christians trust in God. Jesus doesn't ask us to condemn the world. He asks us to show a better way. 3. He Wants Us to Represent Him In verse 45, Jesus offers Himself as a model: “The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.” Coleton urges listeners to ask themselves: If my life is the only picture someone sees of Jesus, what will they think He's like? Too many people claim Christ but misrepresent Him with hypocrisy, political idolatry, or cruelty. What our broken world needs is not more cultural Christians—it needs transformed people who reflect the real Jesus. People should see in us the compassion, courage, humility, and love of Christ. ⸻ Discussion Questions 1. The Cross & Suffering • How are you currently viewing your hardship or suffering? • Do you tend to see pain as a sign that something has gone wrong—or as something God can use to form you? • What would it look like to keep the cross central in your thinking during hard times? 2. Living Set Apart • Where in your life would Jesus say, “Not so with you”? • Which worldly values or habits are you tempted to follow instead of embodying Jesus' way? • What is one practical way this week you can live differently—compellingly different—in your relationships, speech, spending, or reactions? 3. Representing Jesus Well • If someone based their view of Jesus solely on how you live, what would they believe He is like? • Do people see in you someone who has been radically changed by Jesus? • How can you more clearly reflect the compassion, humility, and sacrificial love of Jesus in your day-to-day life? ⸻

What are the stumbling blocks that stop us from moving forward in faith?
Join us as we hear Dan Darwin's talk on Mark 10: 32-52
Lutheran Preaching and Teaching from St. John Random Lake, Wisconsin
July 25, 2025
Today we're going to talk about a series of statements that if understood as intended, will rapidly change everything about the way you live your life. Here's a huge hint; now is not the time to slow down. It's time to run hard.
Who is this Jesus who refuses to play political games and instead points us back to God's heart? In Mark 10:1–12, Jesus speaks into a loaded question about divorce—not to shame, but to restore God's original design for marriage. This week, we unpack a hard but hopeful word about covenant, commitment, and the kind of love that doesn't give up when things get hard. “Divorce isn't for people who fail—it's for people who refuse to turn around.”
1 Corinthians 12:4-11 New King James Version 4 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: 8 for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, 10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.
Heroes have been around in ancient poems, legends, comic books, tv shows and in movies. Besides having great powers or abilities, they also have a destructive weakness. Even Jesus' disciples had a fallen hero. But, listen and you will be encouraged. Copyright, Dave Andrus 2025
What does Jesus mean when He says we have to be like a child to receive the Kingdom of Heaven? How does this call affect the responsibility of adult believers? Join us as Dallas and special guest Caleb Renfroe sit down to walk through Mark 10:13-16 together.
Jesus was a master story teller who used parables to teach about the Kingdom of God. All the parables are unique in their ability to shock the listener and engage the heart not just the mind. This sermon is a deeper dive into the Parable of the Rich Young Ruler and shows Jesus sending him away due to an idol of greed.

What did Jesus have to say about divorce and God's original intentions for marriage? Join us as Dallas and Carlos sit down to walk through Mark 10:1-12 together as we continue our Weekly Shorts series.
Welcome to Generation! ⛪︎What does it truly mean to be great? In a culture that idolizes fame, power, and personal achievement, Jesus offers a radically different definition: “Whoever wants to be great must be your servant.” In this message, we explore Mark 10 and Jesus' call to humility, unpacking the confusion surrounding greatness and how pride often cheats us of what God has for us. Through the disciples' misunderstanding, the example of Christ, and real-life reflections, we confront our own ambition and discover the freeing, powerful path of humble service. Greatness isn't out of reach, it's found in giving ourselves away. Let's pursue true greatness together.
Text: Mark 10:17–31 Coleton taught from the story of the rich young ruler, highlighting how a man who seemed to have everything—morality, status, and wealth—still lacked the one thing that truly mattered: Jesus. His story shows us three important lessons we must learn if we want to experience eternal life and freedom. 1. Good Moral Behavior Cannot Earn Eternal Life The rich man did everything right—he kept the commandments, approached Jesus with humility, and even received Jesus' love—but he still lacked something. Jesus identified the issue: the man didn't want Jesus, he wanted eternal life on his own terms. Eternal life isn't a reward for good behavior; it's a relationship with Jesus. Jesus made this clear: “You still lack one thing… come, follow me.” (v. 21) Eternal life is not about what you've done; it's about who you're with. Jesus offers Himself, not a checklist. And many religious people today are in danger of missing Jesus because they substitute routines for relationship. “Eternal life is life with Jesus, not just doing things for Jesus.” 2. You Will Always Sacrifice for What You Worship Jesus asked the man to give up his wealth because it had become his god. But the man walked away sad. Why? Because even though he said no to Jesus, he still sacrificed something—his joy—for his idol. Coleton showed how everyone sacrifices for what they worship: money, power, approval, comfort—all demand sacrifice. The question isn't will you sacrifice? but for whom or what will you sacrifice? The promise of Jesus is that any sacrifice for Him is always worth it. He gives back more—both in this life and the one to come. 3. Many People Stay Trapped Because They Choose To The man recognized something was missing in his life. He came to Jesus looking for answers. Jesus gave him one—but the man chose to walk away sad. Like a monkey caught in a trap holding onto rice, the man wouldn't let go of what was trapping him. His imprisonment was a choice. Many of us are the same. Jesus offers freedom, joy, and life—but we reject it because we won't let go of control, sin, pride, or pain. Coleton challenged the listeners to stop choosing captivity when Jesus offers freedom. ⸻ Discussion Questions: 1. In what ways are you tempted to treat eternal life like a reward instead of a relationship? 2. Are there areas in your life where you're “doing the right things” but missing closeness with Jesus? 3. What are you currently sacrificing for the thing you worship most? Is it worth the cost? 4. Jesus promises more than what you sacrifice—do you trust Him to provide in the places you feel afraid to let go? 5. Is there something you know Jesus is calling you to let go of—but you've been holding onto it? What's keeping you from releasing it? 6. Have you ever felt like the rich man—sad, stuck, or spiritually dry—despite doing everything “right”? What do you think Jesus might be inviting you into instead? ⸻ Quoted Authors and Illustrations: • John Maxwell “A wise person learns from his mistakes. A wiser one learns from others' mistakes.” • David Foster Wallace (from his 2005 Kenyon College commencement address) “There is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships… Worship money and you will never have enough… Worship your body and beauty and you will always feel ugly… Worship power and you will feel weak… Worship your intellect… you will end up feeling like a fraud.” • Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance “There's an old South Indian Monkey Trap… The only reason [the monkey] can't be free is because of his own choices.” ⸻ Key Takeaways: • Eternal life isn't earned—it's received through a relationship with Jesus. • Everyone sacrifices for what they worship. The only safe place to direct that sacrifice is Jesus. • Sometimes the reason we stay stuck is not because there's no way out—but because we won't let go of what's trapping us.
Mark 10:17-31 - Justin Valiquette - University Campus
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Tom Ludy from Tutle Lake, WI. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. You're helping spread God's Word to hearts that are hungry for truth. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 10:46-52: And they came to Jericho. And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the roadside. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” And Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” And they called the blind man, saying to him, “Take heart. Get up; he is calling you.” And throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus. And Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” And the blind man said to him, “Rabbi, let me recover my sight.” And Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him on the way. — Mark 10:46-52 Bartimaeus had one shot. One moment. He couldn't see Jesus—but he had heard the stories. So he cried out: “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” And what did the crowd do? They told him to shut up. That's how the world responds to visible, verbal faith. They don't mind if you stay quiet about your beliefs. But start crying out to Jesus—start declaring your need for him—and people get uncomfortable. They'll try to shame you. Silence you. Pressure you to tone it down. But Bartimaeus wouldn't be silenced. He cried out even louder. Because real faith breaks through cultural pressure. Real faith speaks when others say, “Be quiet.” Real faith refuses to blend in. And here's what's beautiful: Jesus stops. Right there in the noise, the crowd, the pressure. He hears the cry of faith and calls Bartimaeus forward. Then he asks: “What do you want me to do for you?” It's not a trick question. Bartimaeus doesn't hesitate. “Rabbi, let me recover my sight.” And Jesus heals him. But more than that, he makes him a follower. Bartimaeus leaves the roadside and joins Jesus on the road to Jerusalem. Faith in Jesus will set you apart. And that will make people uncomfortable. And good! The world will tell you to stay quiet. Stay polite. Stay private. But Jesus isn't looking for silent believers. He's calling out to those who cry out. So don't let the world mute your worship, your convictions, or your witness. Speak up. Cry out. Follow boldly. Because Jesus stops for those who won't stay silent. #BoldFaith, #SpeakUpForJesus, #Mark10 ASK THIS: When have you felt pressured to keep your faith quiet? What would “crying out” look like for you this week? Who in your life needs to see bold, unapologetic faith? What's keeping you from following Jesus fully, like Bartimaeus? DO THIS: This week, speak openly about your faith at least once. Don't hide it—declare it. PRAY THIS: Jesus, give me the courage to speak up when the world wants me to be silent. Let my faith be louder than fear or pressure. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Gratitude."
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Mike Howells from Lakeville, MN. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. You're helping spread God's Word to hearts that are hungry for truth. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 10:35-45: And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to him and said to him, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you.” And he said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?” And they said to him, “Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.” Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?” And they said to him, “We are able.” And Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink you will drink, and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized, but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.” And when the ten heard it, they began to be indignant at James and John. And Jesus called them to him and said to them, “You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. But it shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” — Mark 10:35-45 They asked for thrones. Jesus pointed them to a cross. James and John want glory seats. They want to have status next to Jesus in His kingdom. But they don't understand what kind of King he is—or what kind of kingdom he's bringing. Jesus gently pushes back. “You don't know what you're asking.” He speaks of a cup of suffering. A baptism of pain. He's not headed for a throne just yet. First, he'll serve. Then, he'll bleed. Last, he'll give his life. And then Jesus delivers one of the most explicit mission statements in all of Scripture. His mission. One worth pursuing that's better than a seat on the right and left of the throne: “The Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” In a world obsessed with climbing the ladder, Jesus sees his mission differently. The path to true greatness is not up—it's down. Down into humility. Down into service. Down into sacrifice. And here's the irony: the greatest person in the room is telling the secret to descending into greatness. So, stop chasing a name for yourself and start serving the Name above all names. Don't ask, “How high can I rise?” Instead ask, “How low can I go—for Jesus?” #ServeLikeJesus, #TrueGreatness, #Project23 ASK THIS: What are some subtle ways you chase status or recognition? Why do you think Jesus connects suffering with greatness? How does Jesus redefine leadership and authority in this passage? What is one practical way you can serve someone today? DO THIS: Serve someone today without needing thanks. Just do it—for Jesus. PRAY THIS: Jesus, I confess that I chase status and recognition. Help me embrace true greatness—humble, sacrificial, and patterned after you. Amen. PLAY THIS: “Jesus, Son of God” by Chris Tomlin.
We often treat people according to what we think we can get out of the relationship and that is a very dangerous way to live. In this case, it can actually be the difference between life and death. Consider this video a warning and a blessing at the same time!!!
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Daniel Guertin from Stillwater, MN. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. You're helping get God's Word to people in every season of life. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 10:32-34: And they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them. And they were amazed, and those who followed were afraid. And taking the twelve again, he began to tell them what was to happen to him, saying, "See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death and deliver him over to the Gentiles. And they will mock him and spit on him, and flog him and kill him. And after three days he will rise." — Mark 10:32-34 Jesus is leading the way up to Jerusalem—and he knows exactly what's waiting there. Condemnation. Betrayal. Mocking. Beatings. Crucifixion. And yet, he keeps walking ahead of the others. Burn that image into your minds. Most people run from pain. We try to escape it and remove it. Jesus walks steadily toward it, knowing it all, and endures to the end. He doesn't avoid the cross. He embraces it because love leads him forward. His pace isn't reluctant. It's resolved. This is the third time in Mark's Gospel that Jesus predicts his suffering and death. But this time, the details are even more vivid. He doesn't sugarcoat it. He doesn't leave it vague. He tells his followers plainly what's about to happen. And still, we see they don't fully get it. But Jesus does! He's not caught off guard. He's not a victim of circumstance. He's the Son of God on a mission. He is determined to redeem. Jesus knew—and still went. He knew the cost. He knew the pain. But he went… for you. Following Jesus means walking toward discomfort, not away from it. But that's the way of Christ. It's what we are called to do. To follow him anywhere and everywhere. Even though we don't know the suffering that lies ahead, we still follow. But we don't walk alone. We follow the One who went first—and who walked through death to bring us life. So, when you feel afraid of what lies ahead, remember this: Jesus has already walked that road—and He walks it with you now. God, the road we travel today is tough. It's filled with confusion, pain, and suffering. Some of it results from our sin, and some from the sins of others in this world. It's difficult to walk through it and keep following you. But we trust you and your guidance through the pain. In your name, we pray. Amen. #JesusLedTheWay, #CourageToFollow, #Project23 ASK THIS: What emotions does the image of Jesus “walking ahead” stir in you? Why do we sometimes hesitate to follow Jesus when the road looks difficult? How does knowing Jesus faced the cross change how you face your fears? What's one step of obedience you've been avoiding? DO THIS: Write down one area where you feel afraid to follow Jesus. Then ask Him to lead you forward with courage. PRAY THIS: Jesus, you knew the cross was coming—and you still chose to walk toward it. Help me trust you when obedience feels hard or costly. Amen. PLAY THIS: “Lead Me to the Cross."
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to David Freeman from Palm Coast, FL. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. You're helping people everywhere live with authentic faith. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 10:23-31: And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!” And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how difficult it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” And they were exceedingly astonished, and said to him, “Then who can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” Peter began to say to him, “See, we have left everything and followed you.” Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”— Mark 10:23-31 Jesus speaks a sobering fact: “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God.” Not because riches are wrong. But because riches are deceptive. Wealth, comfort, and success—all can offer an illusion. An illusion of control, security, and self-made power. But these are shadows, not substance. And many of us, even those without great wealth, fall for the same illusions. We often cling to: Titles for identity. Relationships for validation. Savings for security. Performance for peace. And yet, when these things are threatened, we freak out, because what we thought was firm was faulty, what was solid was shifting sand. And Jesus wants to set us free from this illusion. Not to take away our joy, but to free us from the illusion so we can experience the freedom of greater joy. Then Peter exclaims as he beats his chest, “We've left everything for you!” And Jesus reassures his statement, even though he knows his own words will test him. Peter has not left everything because a rooster is yet to crow. He was still clinging to his ideas about Jesus and his security, safety, and significance, which is why Jesus explained again, "The first will be last. And the last will be first." Stop clinging to things that pretend to be saviors. Your status, your stuff, your success—none of them can save you; only Jesus can. Let go of the illusions, and grab hold of what's real. True security is never found in what you secure, but in the One who saves and secures your salvation. #LetGoAndTrust, #FaithOverComfort, #Project23 ASK THIS: What illusion of control are you tempted to believe? Why do comfort and success often feel more trustworthy than faith? Where is God asking you to trust Him more deeply today? What's something you need to release so you can follow Jesus more fully? DO THIS: Identify one illusion you're tempted to trust—then name it in prayer and replace it with faith in Jesus. PRAY THIS: Lord, open my eyes to the things I rely on instead of you. Help me let go of what's false so I can live by true faith. Amen. PLAY THIS: “More Than Anything” by Natalie Grant.
Pastor Danielle Frazer shows how Jesus upends worldly ambition by teaching that true greatness in his kingdom is found in humble service rather than seeking status.

And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the roadside. [47] And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” [48] And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” [49] And Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” And they called the blind man, saying to him, “Take heart. Get up; he is calling you.” [50] And throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus. [51] And Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” And the blind man said to him, “Rabbi, let me recover my sight.” [52] And Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him on the way.
