Podcasts about Mark 9

Peter, James, and John are coming down the mountain with the Lord, and they are met with a crowd of people and the disciples disputing with the scribes. A man has brought his only son, and he needs Jesus' help.

Everyone takes something seriously. We protect what we value, pursue what we love, and make sacrifices for what matters most—but how seriously do we take sin?In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, The Gospel According to Mark, as Paul explores Jesus' sobering words about sin and unpacks three practical ways we should respond in light of them.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons

Two big questions- Is divorce ever acceptable? Is our eternal destiny based on good behavior? Our culture has a lot of confusing answers to these important questions. How did Jesus answer them?

Serving others, not judging- Jesus had to refocus the attention of the disciples, who were spending a little too much time comparing themselves to others. We need to remain humble, daily examining our own hearts, and let God be the judge of others.

As we make our way into Mark 9, we are reminded of all of the great things we have seen and learned about Jesus. He has proven Himself to be a wonderful compassionate Shepherd who helps the weak, heals the sick, and restores the broken. As wonderful as all of that has been, nothing can prepare us for what He will show us today. His glory will be revealed on the mount of transfiguration, and only three men will be allowed to go with Him and see this great event.

Our culture has confused what greatness is, what greatness does, and who truly embodies greatness. In many ways, we've bought into the world's definition instead of Christ's.In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, The Gospel According to Mark, as Paul unpacks Jesus' teaching that “the first shall be last and the last shall be first,” and explains what true greatness and biblical servanthood really look like.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons

Program for 06/01/26 Covenant Community Church: Mark 9:14-32

In this message, we discuss the importance of being a church willing and ready to help all people, especially those who may seem beyond rehabilitation.

Of all the systems and ideals that Jesus came to turn on their heads, the definition and concept of Greatness is probably the most significant. In this message, Jesus challenges the world's understanding of what makes one great and shows us a better way forward. Listen as we discuss how 'losing' now can mean 'winning' in eternity--how victory in God's Kingdom is found down a rather unconventional path.

When Jesus came into this world, he established an eternal community called "the kingdom of God." Anyone in heaven or on earth who has submitted to King Jesus is a part of that kingdom, and the values & priorities of his kingdom are drastically different from those found in this world. #MoRealJesus

Program for 05/28/2026 Covenant Community Church: Mark 9:1-13

Why do the Gospels contain so many accounts of Jesus confronting demons and delivering the possessed?In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, The Gospel According to Mark, as Paul explains how these dramatic encounters reveal the destructive power of evil, the danger of spiritual bondage, and the unmatched authority of Jesus Christ to rescue and restore.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.

Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series in the gospel of Mark – JESUS: The Servant of God. Jesus interacts with the father of a demon-possessed boy and challenges him to believe that He can save the child. True faith believes that God can do anything. The shortest of the four gospels, Mark focuses on the things Jesus did more than on the things He said. In this study we will see Jesus described as the Servant of God. Through that we should be able to see our own role in the kingdom of God. Rick is the Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel French Valley in Murrieta, California.

Mark 9 (Part 2) - Nathan Bailey by Somerville St Church of Christ

When Jesus came into this world, he established an eternal community called "the kingdom of God." Anyone in heaven or on earth who has submitted to King Jesus is a part of that kingdom, and the values & priorities of his kingdom are drastically different from those found in this world. #MoRealJesus  

In Mark 9, Peter's response to Jesus' transfiguration reveals how we often interrupt holy moments by trying to control them instead of simply receiving them. When faced with God's overwhelming glory, Peter defaulted to familiar religious practices, missing the point that Jesus had already chosen to dwell with humanity permanently. We make similar mistakes when we answer questions nobody asked or try to manage divine encounters rather than sit in wonder. God wants us to recognize that Jesus is in a category by Himself, above all other good things. Holy moments happen when the divine enters our reality - during worship, prayer, Scripture reading, or everyday experiences. Instead of trying to control these encounters, we need to learn to receive them with gratitude and allow them to transform our thinking.

Out of the twelve apostles that Christ selected there are three with whom he had a closer relationship; those men are Peter, James, and John. Today, Jesus takes the three of them up a mountain to pray where he is transfigured before them. In other words, his glory is revealed through his humanity in a unique and tangible way, so that the disciples might bear witness to his divinity. When they descend the mountain to meet the other disciples, Christ finds the remaining disciples trying to cast out a demon, but they are unable to do so. Later, Jesus predicts his death for the second time in the gospel of Mark, answers a question about who is the greatest, and gives a hyperbole for those who go on sinning with the blessings God has given them. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Mark 9:17-2617 A man in the crowd answered, “Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that has robbed him of speech. 18 Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive out the spirit, but they could not.”19 “You unbelieving generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me.”20 So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.21 Jesus asked the boy's father, “How long has he been like this?”“From childhood,” he answered. 22 “It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us.”23 “‘If you can'?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.”24 Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”25 When Jesus saw that a crowd was running to the scene, he rebuked the impure spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” he said, “I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”26 The spirit shrieked, convulsed him violently and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He's dead.” 27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him to his feet, and he stood up.

Have you ever found yourself saying, I want to believe — I really do — but there's this part of me that just... doesn't? That is exactly where we land in Mark chapter 9 today, and friend, you are in good company. We're wrapping up our mini-series on confusion to clarity, and this week we're sitting with one of the most honest prayers in all of Scripture — just six words: I do believe. Help my unbelief. It comes from a desperate dad who has been fighting for his son, who tried everything, even coming to Jesus's disciples, and still walked away empty-handed. And yet, in that moment of raw honesty with Jesus, healing happens anyway. Here's what I love about this story: the man's unbelief did not stop Jesus from acting. Jesus doesn't need our perfect faith. He needs our whole heart — the good stuff and the doubt, the confidence and the fear. That's what wholehearted really means. We also talk about why the disciples couldn't drive out the spirit — and what Jesus's answer ("this kind only comes out by prayer") tells us about the interior life Jesus is calling us to. Spoiler: our spiritual power doesn't come from doing more. It comes from being with our Heavenly Father. And we close out the chapter with Jesus flipping the script on greatness — anyone who wants to be first must be last and servant of all. Because the way of Jesus isn't power. It's humility. It's vulnerability. And it is a full, beautiful, rigorous life of discipleship. Want More?

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible for March 2nd, 2026! On this sixty-first day of our journey through the Bible, Hunter guides us into the heart of scripture, reading from Numbers chapters 30 and 31, and Mark chapter 9. Today's passages explore the nature of vows, the consequences of agreements, and the fierce battle against the Midianites. In the Gospel of Mark, we witness Jesus' transfiguration on the mountain, a dramatic healing, and powerful teachings about faith, humility, and combating sin. Hunter draws thoughtful connections between Old Testament laws and Jesus' words, showing how our need for freedom from sin is met by going to the Father and confessing our burdens. The episode is wrapped with heartfelt prayers for the listeners, encouragement to be instruments of peace, and reminders of God's unwavering love. Stay tuned for reflections, community shoutouts from Michael McClatcher, and invitations to join this growing circle of faith. Whether you're new or a regular, today's journey invites you to experience grace, hope, and belonging at the heart of God's word. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He frees us from the agreements of sin. In Numbers 30, scripture starts with instructions that might seem obscure. There's guidance about vows and how a married woman or an unmarried daughter might be released from a binding agreement—by bringing it to her father or husband, who could nullify it if they did not approve. It was simple: freedom from obligation came through someone in authority. In Mark 9, Jesus confronts sin with equally strong language. He says, "If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off." He isn't advocating literal amputation, but rather using powerful words to emphasize the seriousness of sin's grip. Sin, Jesus shows us, operates like a contract, a vow—an insidious agreement between ourselves and the parts of us that are prone to wander. Sin says to the hand, "Do this and I'll reward you with that." Sin bargains with the eye, "Look here and you'll gain something." We make these agreements, often without realizing, and they bind us. But severing limbs is not the answer. The answer is severing the vows and contracts we have unwittingly made with sin. And the way to do that is the way shown in Numbers 30: we bring our vow to the Father. We confess to Him the promise, the contract that is ruining our lives—and He, our good Father, is the one with the authority to nullify it. He breaks the contract. He releases us from sin's power and control. This is not about magic words; it's about what God has done in sending His Son. Jesus paid the price for our sin. He met the demands of the agreement, and He alone has the power to free us from the bonds we've created. He is the one who can tie those deceitful contracts to a millstone and throw them into the sea. Are you trapped in the grip of sin? Take every agreement you've made—all the bargains, all the lies—and bring them to your Father. Confess them. Your confession doesn't change God's attitude toward you; it changes you. It wipes your eyes clear to the truth of your being: that you belong to Him. Regardless of sins committed, God will never cease to be your Father. He has united Himself with us once and for all through Jesus Christ—His incarnation, death, resurrection, ascension. Jesus has defeated sin, death, and the grave. Sin blinds our eyes to the reality that we are swept up into something new, but confession is our way of seeing again. On the cross, Jesus broke the power of every agreement. Let us return to the Father and remember who we are in the Son—free, alive, hopeful, and full of love. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL
