If Jesus asked you to choose the twelve men who would be his closest ministry partners, who would make your list?In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, The Gospel According to Mark, as Paul Tripp explores why Levi the tax collector would never be our pick—and how our reactions reveal hearts far more like the self-righteous scribes than we might expect.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.
“Son, your sins are forgiven.” With this shocking declaration, Jesus shifts the focus from physical paralysis to spiritual brokenness, even daring to call this sinful man, “Son.” In this episode of The Magnificent 37, we witness Jesus proclaiming the Word of God and preaching the Gospel as well as the extraordinary faith of friends who tear open a roof to bring a paralyzed man to Jesus when the crowds were too big. Instead of simply healing the man, Jesus forgives him, revealing that His primary mission is to absolve sin. This miracle challenges the religious leaders (who can forgive sin but God alone?!) and proves that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins, demonstrating that true healing begins with reconciliation with God. The Rev. John Lukomski, pastor emeritus and co-host of Wrestling with the Basics on KFUO Radio, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Mark 2:1-12. Thy Strong Word kicks off the new year by dedicating our time to study "The Magnificent 37: The Miracles of Jesus." Christ didn't just speak the Word; He demonstrated it with power. From the quiet intimacy of water turning to wine at Cana to the earth-shaking reality of the empty tomb, the Gospels record thirty-seven distinct moments where Jesus suspended the laws of nature to reveal the power of his grace. This isn't just a list of "neat tricks" from history. It is a systematic walkthrough of how God breaks into our broken world to fix it. Why did Jesus curse a fig tree? Why did He need mud to heal a blind man? What does the coin in the fish's mouth teach us about being citizens of heaven and earth? Host, Pastor Phil Booe and a lineup of guest pastors will take you through each event, verse by verse. We'll move past the Sunday School summary and get into the meat of the text, including the Old Testament connections, the cultural context, and the immediate comfort these signs bring to your life today. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

What if the biggest obstacle to experiencing more of God isn't effort—but space?In week two of our year-long journey through the Gospel of Mark, we explore Mark 1:1–8 and the surprising way God begins His work: not with miracles, crowds, or even Jesus himself—but with preparation. Drawing from Israel's story in Exodus, Isaiah, and Malachi, we see that before God moves powerfully, He prepares a people. John the Baptist's call to repentance isn't about doing more for God, but making room for God to do more. This message invites us to slow down, examine what's crowding God out, and rediscover the kind of preparation that leads to real renewal.Learn more about Mark's Gospel @ https://bibleproject.com/guides/book-of-mark/
In week two of our Upside Down Glory series, Pastor Bob Erbig walks through Mark 2:1–12 to show how faith becomes advocacy when it refuses to accept barriers that keep people from Jesus. Centered on the story of the paralytic whose friends literally break through a roof to bring him into Christ's presence, this message confronts a culture that quietly assigns value based on ability, productivity, and “quality of life.” From modern genetic counseling pressures to healthcare systems that ration care, the same question echoes through the centuries: who decides which lives are worthy of access, dignity, and belonging? Jesus answers that question decisively—by forgiving, healing, and publicly defending a man the world would overlook. This sermon challenges the church to recognize disability ministry as a shared responsibility, calling believers to notice barriers, carry burdens together, and actively advocate for those who are often excluded—before birth and throughout life.Faith that truly believes Jesus is worth reaching will do whatever it takes to take the roof off and bring others to Him.

Today, with only three days remaining in 2025, let’s begin our New Testament journey with Jesus in the “Grand Narrative”. Gospel writers Matthew, Mark and Luke each tell us of the remarkable event which drew adult Jesus into the public eye and formally launched His ministry, as the Savior of the world. Remember, that’s how the angels had announced His birth to the shepherds that Christmas night? (Luke 2:8-13) (Click here to see full text, images and links) Pastor Doug Anderson “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, with our eyes fixed on Jesus…” (Heb. 12:1,2)Have a comment or question about today's chapter?

When Jesus was trying to preach in Capernaum, the crowd was so thick that so men got their paralyzed friend in front of Jesus by breaking through the roof. Jesus first forgave the man of his sins. That caused the Scribes to think Jesus was declaring He was God. He was! Then He proved it by telling the man to rise, pick up his bed and walk. The greater miracle was the forgiveness of sins. Have you experience it?
