In week 38 of our journey through the Gospel of Mark, Pastor Kevin Queen teaches from Mark 12:35–44 and invites us to reflect on a powerful question: How are we magnifying Jesus with our lives? We're all focused on something; our worries, our pain, our success, our opinions, or our hopes for the future. And what we focus on is what we magnify. In this message, we see how Jesus calls us to lift our focus, get out of the way, and live lives that reflect Him so others can clearly see His grace, love, and truth. Through real stories and Jesus' teaching in the temple, we're challenged to examine what has our attention, our hearts, and our resources: and to consider whether our lives are pointing people toward Christ. – – – – – – – – – If this message encouraged you, consider sharing it with someone who needs it and subscribing for more messages as we continue through the Gospel of Mark.

When was the last time you audited your own heart? As we enter the Awaken season, this message invites us to pause and take stock of where we’re at. When life gets heavy, it reveals what we're truly plugged into. What we love, trust, and run to in moments of pressure often exposes the condition of our hearts. In Mark 12:28–34, Jesus names the greatest commandment: to love God with our whole lives and to love others as ourselves. These two are inseparable. How we love God is always reflected in how we love people – even when we don't agree with them. In week 37 of our Gospel of Mark series, Pastor Kevin Queen challenges us to examine what may be competing for our devotion. This message isn't about trying harder, it's about getting honest, repenting where needed, and returning to wholehearted love for God and others. – – – – – – – For more info and resources on this series, visit crosspoint.tv/mark.If this message encouraged you, take a moment to let us know in the comments.

Caleb Drahosh As Jesus' public teaching ministry comes to an end and He has a seat in the temple. He observes people bringing in their offerings. Rich people put in large amounts, but an impoverished widow drops a very small amount. Jesus remarks that her gift is extraordinary because it's all she has. Giving is done before the face of God and is reflective of what we believe about Him. How will tomorrow's needs be provided for? Even small gifts can reflect extraordinary trust.

We all reach moments where avoiding the question is no longer an option. In Mark 12, Jesus tells a parable that forces one unavoidable decision into the open: What are we going to do about Him? In week 35 of our journey through the Gospel of Mark, Pastor James Savage breaks down the parable of the tenants and exposes a tension we all live with – the desire to control our own lives. This message challenges us to steward the gifts God has given us for His glory. It also might make us rethink all we understand about ownership and control. Tune in, take notes, and reflect on what it looks like to live with open hands and a surrendered heart. Rejecting Jesus does not change who He is. Jesus is Lord. The only question is whether He is OUR Lord. – – – – – – – – – For more info and resources on this series, visit crosspoint.tv/mark. If this message encouraged you, let us know in the comments.

The leaders of Israel knew who Jesus was and so-loved themselves that they decided to murder Jesus, the Son of God and the prophesied Messiah, to keep the money, power and honor that really belonged to Jesus and the Father.
Caleb Drahosh Now Jesus poses a question regarding the scribes' claims to highlight His own deity and humanity. Jesus flies in the face of the expectations of the religious leadership. And the crowds were glad to hear Him. But much like the scribe in the previous passage, would they submit to Him? Jesus then issues a warning against the scribes and their performative practices, their predatory posture and their pretentious praying. Seeking the praise of men in self-righteousness is not in line with Jesus' message and mission.

2026.01.11 The Lord Of The Vineyard | Mark 12:1-12 | Bradley Chwastyk by EP Church Annapolis
Caleb Drahosh When the Pharisees, Herodians, and the Sadducees approach Jesus, they do so out of antagonism. Jesus keeps turning the tables on them, showing that He's the One who is over them. Jesus doesn't go into His final days with His back up against the wall; He goes to the cross in full control, completely unrivaled. But now a scribe comes questioning Jesus. Unlike the others, the scribe is happy for an answer. He is close to the kingdom because He believes Jesus' answer. But will this belief be validated by submission to Jesus?

After a month away from our study in Mark, we're returning to the middle of chapter 12, where Jesus faces a series of challenges from religious leaders in Jerusalem during his final week. After Jesus entered Jerusalem to shouts of Hosanna and cleansed the temple, a delegation from the Sanhedrin questioned his authority. Pharisees and Herodians attempt to trap him with a question about taxes to Caesar, and Sadducees pose a hypothetical about marriage, hoping to prove there is no resurrection. This Sunday, we'll examine the final question from a scribe—a legal expert on God's law—regarding the greatest commandment (Mark 12:28-37). This leads to a discussion that highlights how someone can be remarkably close to God's kingdom without actually entering it. The main point is that true entry into the kingdom requires more than intellectual agreement with God's truths or admiration for Jesus; it demands recognizing, trusting, and submitting to Jesus as Lord, the divine Son of God, who alone has kept God's commandments in our place and, in the new birth, enables us to love God and others. I. The Foundational Truth of God's Law (v. 28-31) II. The Full Agreement Of A Lost Sinner (v. 32-34) III. The Faith That Enters The Kingdom (v. 35-37)
John Baumgartner Another group faces off against Jesus with a tricky question. The Sadducees think they understand the Bible, but they only use it to win their arguments. They are proud of their knowledge while being ignorant of the scriptures. Jesus reveals their ignorance by beating them at their own game. He is the true King of Israel, and He is defeating His adversaries with the Word of God.
“Jesus replied, ‘The most important commandment is this: “Listen, O Israel! The Lord our God is the one and only Lord. And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.” The second is equally important: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” No other commandment is greater than these.’” (Mark 12:29–31 NLT) In this month’s devotions, we’re going to look at the Gospel of Mark. And we’re going to start with one of the key passages of the New Testament. According to Mark 12:28, “One of the teachers of religious law” asked Jesus, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?” (NLT). He was testing Jesus. At that time, Jewish religious leaders recognized over 600 different laws. And they spent a lot of time ranking them according to importance. The questioner wanted Jesus to say something controversial so that Jesus’ enemies could use it against Him. Instead, Jesus gave him the wisdom of the ages. “The most important commandment is this: ‘Listen, O Israel! The Lord our God is the one and only Lord. And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.’ The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these” (Mark 12:29–31 NLT). With those words, Jesus highlighted the connection between loving God and living in a way that pleases Him. He established the template of the Christian life. If you really love God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, then you will not want to break the other commandments. If you really love God as you ought to, then you will not take His name in vain, have other gods before Him, or make images that you bow down before. And if you really love your neighbor as yourself, you will not steal from him. You will not covet what belongs to him. And certainly, you will not kill him. So, if we master the basics of loving God and loving others as we ought to, then obeying other commandments will come naturally. In daily life, this looks like resisting temptation instead of choosing what feels good in the moment. In fact, it looks like making daily choices that keep you away from tempting situations. It looks like studying God’s Word purposefully to become acquainted with what pleases Him. It looks like keeping open a line of communication with Him—a daily prayer routine through which you receive guidance, direction, and encouragement. Augustine said, “Love, and do what you will.” It’s a provocative statement, but it makes sense. If you really love God as you ought to—with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength—then you will naturally do what He wants you to do. Reflection question: How do you know when you’re loving God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength?

Mark 12:28-34 “Understanding God's Love”Series: Christmas from the Gospel of Matthew Preacher: Bill HarritSunday MorningDate: 28th December 2025Passage: Mark 12:28-34
Caleb Drahosh Some Pharisees again come to Jesus with the intent of trapping Him. They ask Jesus about paying taxes: is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar? Taking a Roman coin Jesus asks about the inscription on it: whose likeness is it? It's Caesar's. Jesus says to give Caesar that which bears Caesar's likeness and give to God that which bears God's likeness. We are created in God's image. God gives earthly governments and civil authorities real, but limited, authority. Our final allegiance is to the One who has placed His image on us.

THE WIDOW'S OFFERING Mark 12:41–44 Culture of Gospel Share this with someone in your life who doesn't know Jesus: Jesus sees value where the world sees insignificance. The God who notices a poor widow's two pennies is the same God who sees you and knows you. SERMON SUMMARY Jesus sits in the temple, watching people give their offerings. In a surprising move, He draws His disciples' attention—not to the wealthy, powerful, or impressive, but to a poor widow who drops in two tiny coins. Her gift, seemingly worthless, becomes one of the most famous moments of worship in all of Scripture. Coleton teaches that Jesus uses this woman as an object lesson to form His disciples—and us. The heart of the message is this: Jesus highlights this woman because He wants His followers to live with her kind of obedience, sacrifice, and trust. Coleton explores three reasons Jesus focuses our attention on this woman's life. 1. Be Obedient With the Seemingly Insignificant Stuff Mark 12:41–42 “Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents.” Jesus watches people give. Many contribute large sums, but a poor widow drops in two lepta—the smallest coins in circulation. Mark Strauss writes: “Two lepta could almost purchase a handful of flour… less than one penny today.” In other words, her gift can't pay for anything. If we watched her give, most of us would be tempted to say, “Ma'am, please keep it. It won't help.” But she gives anyway. She does not give based on outcomes or impact—she gives out of obedience. This is the first lesson: Obedience is not about impact. It's about faithfulness. Christians often fall into disobedience because we think: What difference will forgiving them make? What difference will praying make? What difference will reading my Bible make? What difference does kindness make? But Coleton reminds us: Nearly everything God calls His people to do looks insignificant in the moment—but God loves to use small acts to unleash enormous outcomes. Examples from Scripture: Moses: “Raise your staff over the sea.” Joshua: “March around Jericho.” Samuel: “Anoint the youngest son, the shepherd boy.” And the results? A sea split, walls fell, and David became Israel's greatest king. Examples from Jesus' ministry: “Fill the jars with water.” “Bring me what bread you have.” “Go show yourself to the priest.” Again and again, God works through small acts of obedience. Coleton then shares the story of David Wilkerson, the small-town pastor who obeyed a tiny, strange prompting: stop watching TV at night and pray instead. That insignificant act eventually led him to New York City, to ministry among gang members, to founding Teen Challenge, and to beginning Times Square Church—now influencing 140 nations. What began with giving up TV changed lives worldwide. Coleton also shares from his own life: A simple prayer to surrender his life to Jesus Reading Scripture daily Going to counseling Turning the other cheek Fasting and praying None of these felt dramatic in the moment. All of them changed his life. Point: God delights to work through the small things. Jesus points to this woman because she obeys God even in the places that seem insignificant. 2. Be Obedient Even When It Costs You Mark 12:44 “They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.” The widow's obedience isn't just small—it's costly. She gives all she has. Literally, she “lays down her whole life.” James R. Edwards paraphrases the Greek: “She lay down her whole life.” This is the second reason Jesus points to her: Jesus wants followers who obey even when obedience costs them something. Coleton notes that Western Christians often prefer convenient obedience. But true discipleship requires sacrifice. C.S. Lewis wrote: “I do not believe one can settle how much we ought to give… The only safe rule is to give more than we can spare… If our charities do not at all pinch or hamper us, I should say they are too small.” This doesn't apply only to money. It applies to: Forgiveness — which costs us comfort and pride Confession — which costs our image Serving the poor — which costs our time and resources Living within our means — which costs our wants Marriage and parenting — which cost our preferences and independence Coleton gives honest, vulnerable examples: In marriage, he could “win” arguments by being bigger and louder—but that would crush intimacy. As a father, he could refuse to sacrifice his time—but Teddy would pay the price. In friendships, refusing to risk or be selfless leads to loneliness. We want life on our terms but still want the fruits of obedience. But we cannot have both. Then Coleton shares a story about Teddy getting stuck in a playground structure—terrified and refusing help because doing it “Dad's way” felt worse than being stuck. That posture, he says, is all of us: We would rather stay stuck than trust Jesus when His way feels costly. Jesus points to the woman because her costly obedience leads to life. Jesus doesn't ask for sacrifice to harm us but to heal and free us. 3. Trust Him Even When It Doesn't Make Sense This widow doesn't just obey—she trusts God with her entire life. Jesus celebrates her because she trusts God beyond her understanding. Coleton illustrates this with one of the most powerful stories of trust ever recorded: Charles Blondin, the tightrope walker who crossed Niagara Falls. After crossing the falls multiple daring ways, Blondin decided to cross with another person on his back. His manager, Harry Colcord, was the one who climbed onto him. Before stepping onto the rope, Blondin told him: “Don't look down. Look up… You must be one with me. If I sway, sway with me. Do not attempt to do any balancing yourself. If you do, we will both go to our death.” Harry later said: “I learned more religion on that wire than in all my life.” Solomon says the same thing in Proverbs 3:5–6: “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” Jesus calls us to trust Him because He wants to lead us into places we could never reach on our own. Coleton names the hard questions: Why trust Jesus when it doesn't make sense to surrender? Why trust when prayer feels pointless? Why forgive enemies? Why give sacrificially? Why wait on God? Why believe He can use suffering for good? Jesus is not dismissing the tension—He's saying: “Stop trying to balance yourself. Let Me carry you.” The widow shows us what that kind of trust looks like. FINAL CHALLENGE Jesus points to this woman because: She obeys God in the insignificant things. She obeys God even when it costs her. She trusts God even when it makes no sense. And Jesus wants the same kind of life in us—not to burden us, but to lead us into freedom, joy, and the abundant life He promises. He has already proven His love by giving everything for us. Therefore, we can entrust everything to Him. Discipleship Group Questions Where in your life does obedience feel insignificant or pointless? What might God be asking you to do anyway? What is one area where following Jesus currently costs you? How might obedience in that area lead to greater freedom? Which of Jesus' commands do you struggle to trust because it doesn't make sense to you? How have you seen God work through something small or seemingly insignificant in your life? What would it look like this week to “sway with God” instead of trying to balance your own life?

Full grasp that love, when rightly understood and applied, is indispensable to genuine Christian living.
On Sunday, we will continue our study in Mark, focusing on chapter 12:18-27. We've already seen Jesus in the Temple courts, rebuking the chief priests and scribes by comparing them to wicked tenants in God's vineyard. We've observed Him skillfully outmaneuver the Pharisees and Herodians' trap regarding paying taxes to Caesar. Now, the scene shifts to another challenge from the religious elite—the Sadducees—who try to discredit Jesus and the idea of resurrection with a crafted riddle about marriage in the afterlife. Although there are several related questions we will attempt to work through, the Sadducees ultimately seek to demonstrate how foolish the idea of a resurrection is. (They did not believe in an afterlife and accepted only Genesis through Deuteronomy as God's Word.) As Jesus skillfully outmaneuvers these Sadducees, just as He did with other leaders trying to trap Him with His words, He teaches us about the glorious hope of our resurrection with Him. This hope isn't mere wishful thinking; it is based on Jesus' clever response to the Sadducees, which exposes their mistake in denying God's power and His Word. God's power to transform His people assures us that He defeats death, sin, and loss, giving us confident hope for eternity. Jesus then directs the Sadducees to Exodus (a part of Scripture they accepted) and shows (based on the tense of a verb!) that resurrection is real. He points to Exodus 3:6, where God says, "I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob" in the present tense, even though they had died long ago. This demonstrates ongoing life and a covenant with God, because He is the God of the living, not the dead. Resurrection is built into God's Word, even in verb tenses, and reaches its pinnacle in Jesus' own resurrection as the ultimate proof, giving us comfort in grief and confidence that death does not end our story. The Theological Trap: Denying Resurrection (vv. 18-22) Jesus' Response: Ignorant of God's Power (vv. 24-25) Jesus' Response: Ignorant of God's Word (vv. 26-27)
