Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. We are in the Gospel of Mark. Go to the website and grab the Scripture Journal for this study so you can study along with us. I want to give a shout-out today to Tim Steinke from Menasha, WI. Go Packers! Thank you for being a monthly partner in Project23 and helping us share the Gospel with millions as we work our way through the entire Bible. Today, we're reading Mark 1:21-45: And they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath he entered the synagogue and was teaching. And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes. And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God.” But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him. And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee. And immediately he left the synagogue and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. Now Simon's mother-in-law lay ill with a fever, and immediately they told him about her. And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her, and she began to serve them. That evening at sundown they brought to him all who were sick or oppressed by demons. And the whole city was gathered together at the door. And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him. And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed. And Simon and those who were with him searched for him, and they found him and said to him, “Everyone is looking for you.” And he said to them, “Let us go on to the next towns, that I may preach there also, for that is why I came out.” And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons. And a leper came to him, imploring him, and kneeling said to him, “If you will, you can make me clean.” Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him and said to him, “I will; be clean.” And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean. And Jesus sternly charged him and sent him away at once, and said to him, “See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, for a proof to them.” But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places, and people were coming to him from every quarter. — Mark 1:21-45 Jesus walks into the synagogue and doesn't just teach—He commands. His words land differently. Not like the scribes. Not recycled thoughts or secondhand opinions. Jesus speaks with authority, and it stuns people. It's the kind of authority that silences demons and heals sickness with a touch. This is power and compassion, side by side. He speaks, and spirits flee. He touches, and sickness disappears. He lifts a woman by the hand—and she rises, healed, and starts serving. Jesus isn't just full of authority—He uses it to serve, not dominate. He doesn't flex to impress. He acts to restore. That's the kind of King He is. And word spreads. Fast. People start crowding the door. Sick, desperate, oppressed—everyone wants a moment with Jesus. But here's the key: the ones who encountered Him didn't just get relief, they experienced release. Not just healed from something—but freed for something. When Jesus shows up, things change. People don't stay the same. So, here's the question: Have you allowed his authority to change you? Not just inspire you—but actually disrupt, heal, and transform you? #JesusHeals, #SpiritualAuthority, #FaithOverFear ASK THIS: What do you notice about the way Jesus uses His authority? How does His power give you comfort instead of fear? Where do you need healing or freedom today? What's stopping you from bringing that to Jesus right now? DO THIS: Surrender an area of your life where you've been resisting Jesus' authority—ask Him to transform it today. PRAY THIS: Jesus, I don't just want to admire your power—I want to be changed by it. Heal what's broken in me, and lead me in freedom. Amen. PLAY THIS: Same Power.

Our first guest is a local chef with a very interesting background. Thomas Swearingen is up for the Favorite Chef from Best of Home Magazine. Besides preparing food, his military background has allowed him to connect with people on another level. Thomas currently works with children in Northern Wisconsin and enjoys sharing his 20 years of military experiences. He says that sometimes it is not what you have cooked but who you cooked for. He's served Presidents to Congressional Medal of Honor winners. You can help propel him in the contest by checking out THIS web page. Then Karissa Buck and Lisa Jones stopped by from the Community Clothes Closet in Menasha. They're currently running a special drive to help secure underwear for residents in need. Underwear is something many of us take for granted – until we don't have it. For the 11,200 individuals served by Community Clothes Closet, the comfort and confidence that come with a fresh pair of well-fitting underwear are often out of reach. When budgets are stretched, essentials like new undies take a back seat. Click HERE for details on The Great Undie Giveback!

Parshas Vayechi: Blessing the Future The Parsha Perspective is in honor of Eretz Yisroel. May G-d protect our brave soldiers. May G-d return all the hostages in Gaza immediately. The Parsha Perspective is in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. May their souls be uplifted and their memories a blessing. The Parsha Perspective is in honor of the Refuah Shlema of Pesha Henna Bas Yitta Gittel and Mordechai Ben Rachel Rashel. May they experience a swift and complete recovery. Click here to listen, watch and connect! Parshaperspective.com Our Parsha concludes the first book of the Torah, Sefer Bereishis. Ya'akov Avinu spent the last seventeen years of his life in Egypt, a time of peace and fulfillment after decades of struggle. As his life neared its end, Ya'akov called for Yosef and asked him to swear that he would not bury him in Egypt but in Eretz Yisroel, with his ancestors. Yosef swore to honor his father's request. Ya'akov then blessed Yosef's sons, Efraim and Menashe, elevating them to the status of tribes within the Jewish people. This act ensured that Yosef's legacy would hold a unique and eternal place in Jewish history. We find how unique and special Efraim and Menasha were. We learn the ultimate blessing we can experience.

Parshas Vayechi, peace and tranquility The Parsha Perspective is in honor of Eretz Yisroel. May G-d protect our brave soldiers. May G-d return all the hostages immediately. May G-d comfort all those who lost family or friends. The Parsha Perspective is in honor of the Refuah Shlema of HaRav Amitai Ben Shoshanna and those who need to experience a speedy and complete recovery with G-d's help. The Parsha Perspective is in loving memory of grandmothers, Gittel Bas Asher and Shoshanna Bas Sholom, and my aunts, Chana Bas Yehuda and Leah Mintche Bas Ya'akov Yosef, along with Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. May their souls be uplifted and their memories a blessing. Click here to listen, watch and connect! Parshaperspective.com Our Parsha concludes the first book of the Torah, Sefer Berashis. We begin with Ya'akov living the best seventeen years of his life in Egypt; as the end of his life neared, he called for Yosef to visit him. When Yosef arrived, Ya'akov asked him to swear he would bury him with his parents in Israel. After he swore, Ya'akov then blessed Yosef's two sons, Efraim and Menasha. He elevates them to the status of his sons and as tribes among the Jewish people. We find why the word Vayechi is used. We learn the outcome of overcoming struggles and obstacles.
