Mark 15:16-41The soldiers led Jesus away into the palace (that is, the Praetorium) and called together the whole company of soldiers. They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. And they began to call out to him, “Hail, king of the Jews!” Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Falling on their knees, they paid homage to him. And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him. A certain man from Cyrene, Simon, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing by on his way in from the country, and they forced him to carry the cross. They brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which means “the place of the skull”). Then they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it. And they crucified him. Dividing up his clothes, they cast lots to see what each would get. It was nine in the morning when they crucified him. The written notice of the charge against him read: THE KING OF THE JEWS . They crucified two rebels with him, one on his right and one on his left. Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads and saying, “So! You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, come down from the cross and save yourself!” In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him among themselves. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can't save himself! Let this Messiah, this king of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him. At noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. And at three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” ). When some of those standing near heard this, they said, “Listen, he's calling Elijah.” Someone ran, filled a sponge with wine vinegar, put it on a staff, and offered it to Jesus to drink. “Now leave him alone. Let's see if Elijah comes to take him down,” he said. With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last. The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he died, he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!” Some women were watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joseph, and Salome. In Galilee these women had followed him and cared for his needs. Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem were also there.
Mark 14:53-72They took Jesus to the high priest, and all the chief priests, the elders and the teachers of the law came together. Peter followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. There he sat with the guards and warmed himself at the fire.The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death, but they did not find any. Many testified falsely against him, but their statements did not agree.Then some stood up and gave this false testimony against him: “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple made with human hands and in three days will build another, not made with hands.'” Yet even then their testimony did not agree.Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, “Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?” But Jesus remained silent and gave no answer.Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?”“I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”The high priest tore his clothes. “Why do we need any more witnesses?” he asked. “You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think?”They all condemned him as worthy of death. Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him.While Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came by. When she saw Peter warming himself, she looked closely at him.“You also were with that Nazarene, Jesus,” she said.But he denied it. “I don't know or understand what you're talking about,” he said, and went out into the entryway.When the servant girl saw him there, she said again to those standing around, “This fellow is one of them.” Again he denied it.After a little while, those standing near said to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.”He began to call down curses, and he swore to them, “I don't know this man you're talking about.”Immediately the rooster crowed the second time. Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice you will disown me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
This weekend, Pastor Jordan Caro—our Connection Pastor—preached for the first time during our gatherings, sharing from Mark 15:42-47, the moment Jesus was buried. If Jesus could die and still not be defeated, then death is no longer the end—it becomes a doorway. That's what we explore in this sermon. Check it out to learn more!
When was the last time you cried out to Jesus with everything you had? Bartimaeus was a blind beggar—overlooked, desperate, and clinging to hope. Day after day, he sat by the road, listening to stories about a man named Jesus—stories of healing, of power, of mercy. And then one day, Jesus passed by. In that moment, Bartimaeus didn't hold back. He cried out with everything he had: “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me! Even when others tried to silence him, he refused to stay quiet. And Jesus stopped. He saw him, called him close, and healed him. But the story didn't end there—Bartimaeus didn't just receive his sight. He chose to follow Jesus from that day forward. Why do we seek God's power in our lives? Is it just to feel better, fix a problem, or move on? Or is it so we can truly follow Him? Jesus is still opening blind eyes—helping us see Him as the treasure we've been longing for all along.

In this sermon, Pastor Scott Worthington preaches from Mark 15:1–15, where Jesus is delivered to Pilate, Barabbas is released, and Jesus is handed over to be crucified. Barabbas was a wicked, guilty, and condemned man—yet the crowd chose to set him free and crucify Jesus, the innocent and righteous one, in his place. As followers of Jesus, we must recognize that Barabbas is a reflection of us. We were the guilty ones, and Jesus, the righteous one, became our substitute. That's the good news of the gospel. May we take the time to sit and reflect upon what Jesus has done for us. Watch this sermon to learn more!
Mark 14:3-9While he was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, “Why this waste of perfume? It could have been sold for more than a year's wages and the money given to the poor.” And they rebuked her harshly.“Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me. She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial. Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”

Mark 12:13-17Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to Jesus to catch him in his words. They came to him and said, “Teacher, we know that you are a man of integrity. You aren't swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay the imperial tax to Caesar or not? Should we pay or shouldn't we?”But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”“Caesar's,” they replied.Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's.”And they were amazed at him.
[Mark 2:18-28] The Pharisees were missing the point in their relationship with God, with themselves, and with others.
In this sermon, Pastor Scott Worthington preached from Mark 14:43-52 - when Jesus was arrested. On the night of Jesus' arrest, we see these four moments happening: (1) Judas betrays Jesus, (2) Peter strikes the servant of the high priest, (3) Jesus being arrested, and (4) the disciples fleeing. We take a look at each moment and receive applications we can begin wrestling with in our walk with God. Check out this sermon to learn more!
[Mark 2:13-17] What happens when people who claim to follow Jesus view others as “less than” or “not as good”? For a lot of people, Jesus didn't hang around who they thought He should.

Daily Dose of Hope April 9, 2025 Day 3 of Week 2 Scripture – Mark 4:35-41 Prayer: Heavenly Father, we give you today. We start off by just acknowledging that you are God – all-powerful, mighty, all-knowing, and full of mercy and grace. We are insignificant and yet you love us. You want to hear from us. Sometimes, it's hard for me to wrap my head around that. But thank you, Lord. I pray that we can focus on you right now. Help us gather our very scattered and distracted thoughts and focus on you...Speak to us, Lord, and meet us right here, right now. We love you. Amen. Welcome back, friends, to the Daily Dose of Hope, a Deep Dive into the Gospels and Acts. We are finishing up Mark 4 today and this is some of my favorite Scripture. We see that Jesus' authority even extends over nature and this amazes his disciples. They have to face the big question that we also have to face – who is this man? In today's Scripture, we find ourselves on the lake with Jesus. Typically, we refer to it as the Sea of Galilee. When it's calm, it's absolutely beautiful. But this body of water, also called Lake Kinneret, is a large, shallow body of water. As such, it is prone to sudden violent storms when wind hits it−storms that die down equally quickly when the wind stops. This is still early in Jesus' ministry but he has started healing. In fact, he is known for his healings. Because of that, large crowds have become to follow him. There are those who are desperate and there are those who are curious, but the sheer number of people following Jesus and crowding up against him has become cumbersome. Thus, Jesus begins to teach from a boat, with the people standing on the shore. And what has Jesus been teaching them? He's using parables to teach them about the Kingdom of God (we talked about this yesterday). Then, our Scripture says that when evening came, he says to his disciples, “Let's go to the other side of the lake.” Why doesn't Jesus wait until morning? Why a night-time crossing? Obviously, there is something important, something pressing that needs to happen. I want us to notice something here – this is no small thing to cross to the other side of the lake. Crossing the Sea of Galilee means crossing into Gentile territory, where he will be encountered by a demon-possessed man in a graveyard. Jesus is crossing boundaries here. I think this often gets lost in 21st century Bible reading, but Jesus is all about crossing boundaries. He crosses social and spiritual boundaries. He eats with unacceptable people, he touches people who are considered unclean, he breaks the Sabbath law, he communicates with evil, unclean spirits. Getting in the boat with Jesus, crossing to the other side of the lake, can be a risky, unpredictable experience. The Scripture says that Jesus and the disciples leave the crowds behind to go on this nighttime boat ride across the lake. Interestingly, it says that other boats were with them. Jesus just could not get away from the crowds; they are following him on the lake too. But that means they get to be a part of what he is about to do. So, Mark writes that a powerful squall, a huge storm, comes upon them suddenly. Waves were breaking over the sides of the boat and they were taking on a lot of water. The disciples are panicked, which is saying a lot because many of these guys are professional fishermen and they know the sea. While they panic, what's Jesus doing? He's asleep on a pillow. Thus, they frantically wake Jesus up and say, “Teacher, don't you care if we drown?” How often have you asked this question – Jesus, don't you care? This is our ultimate cry to God, isn't it? It's a cry of fear, doubt, abandonment, rejection---we hear this cry repeated in the stories of God's people over and over again. As a pastor, I hear it repeated in this community, in this church, in your own lives. Where is God? Where is Jesus as I deal with cancer? Where is God as I deal with grief or depression or loneliness? Where is God as our world seems to be imploding? Jesus, don't you care? Where are you as I struggle? And Jesus wakes up, he doesn't get upset with them or apologize for sleeping, no small talk – he rebukes the wind and says “Quiet, be still!” He uses the same words here in ancient Greek that are used for rebuking evil spirits. It seems that Jesus has the power to rebuke all kinds of things. What is amazing to me here is that Jesus speaks and there is immediate calm. We see this throughout the book of Mark - Jesus speaks or touches and the things that bring destruction, the things that cause suffering, immediately cease. They immediately cease so that they no longer have the power to cause suffering. Evil spirits, bleeding, illnesses, even death---all with a word or a touch, Jesus stops them. He brings immediate calm. Then Jesus asks them “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” Another translation says, “Guys, why are you such cowards?” I mean, these guys have seen what he can do; they have seen his power. I can't help but think he asks that of us as well: “You have seen what I can do, as I've shown up over and over again in your life. Yet, you still have no faith? I mean, I'm right here in the boat with you. I'm not somewhere far off. I'm here, in the boat.” Let's read verse 41 again. They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!” And that is the big question, isn't it? Who is Jesus? Who is Jesus to you? To me, he is God. He is Savior. He is Lord of all. But that means nothing in your life. Who is Jesus to you??? Answer out loud. Wrestle with this if you need to, but don't just let this question with no response. There is no more important question. Let's close today with Colossians 1:15-20, The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross. Blessings, Pastor Vicki
Mark 10:17-31As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.' ” “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.” Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” At this the man's face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth. Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!” The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, “Who then can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

Mark 9:14-29When they came to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and the teachers of the law arguing with them. As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were overwhelmed with wonder and ran to greet him. “What are you arguing with them about?” he asked. A man in the crowd answered, “Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that has robbed him of speech. 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.” “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.” 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. Jesus asked the boy's father, “How long has he been like this?” “From childhood,” he answered. “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.” “ ‘If you can'?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.” Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” 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.” The spirit shrieked, convulsed him violently and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He's dead.” But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him to his feet, and he stood up. After Jesus had gone indoors, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn't we drive it out?” He replied, “This kind can come out only by prayer. ”

Mark 9:2-12After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them. His clothes became dazzling white, whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus. Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.)Then a cloud appeared and covered them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is my Son, whom I love. Listen to him!”Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus.As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant.And they asked him, “Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?”Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer much and be rejected? But I tell you, Elijah has come, and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”

Through parables, Jesus teaches the upside-down kingdom. Through His continued miracles and teachings, Jesus builds the disciples in an unusual way in order to establish His kingdom on earth.
Jesus feeding the 5,000 is more than just a miracle—it's a glimpse into the heart of Christ. It reveals our deep need and his desire to satisfy not just some of our needs, but all of them. We often come to Jesus expecting him to meet our physical or immediate desires, but he wants to give us something greater—himself. He is the Bread of Life, our daily nourishment, the one who truly satisfies. Just as the bread was broken and multiplied, Jesus' own life was given so that millions could find true life in him. So the question is, is Jesus enough for you? Are there conditions in your heart—things you feel you must have to be okay? Jesus invites us to bring our brokenness, our need, our inadequacy to him. He is ready to be our all in all.You can join our OneLife Sunday morning gatherings via livestream at 9am and 11am CST every Sunday morning.
