Pastor Gary Pauley. Before the disciples could really be disciples, they had to know who it was that they were following. Jesus pushes them on the subject asking them directly, "who do you say I am?" Jesus wants people to be clear on His identity. Jesus affirms Peter's answer to the question... an answer that forms the basis of the Christian faith.

Monday, 30 November 200911.29.09 | Mark: to serve & to give | Bread & Blindness: a light lunch and a heavy challenge | Mark 8:1-22 |
Pastor Gary Pauley. Lunch with Jesus. Seems everyone wanted to join up with Him. Huge crowds followed His ministry. It would take us a month just to plan for such a lunch! Jesus takes yet another opportunity to demonstrate for His followers His unique ability to fill any need... and the lesson went right over the heads of "the twelve". Jesus challenges their inability to "hear" Him...

Missions is about reaching out to others outside of our community with the Gospel. Jesus modeled it by ministering to Gentiles... unheard of in Jewish strict religion of the day. Two episodes show Jesus challenging the apparent faith of a Gentile woman and presenting Himself as Lord to a deaf man.

Monday, 09 November 2009Mark: to serve & to give | The Deceitful Dangers of Rule-Keeping Religion | Mark 7:1-23 |
Why did Jesus keep finding Himself at odds with the most religious people of His culture? Jesus came to give Himself to people, but there were some who felt like they just did not need Him. When it came to religion, they had it all conveniently tied up in a nice attractive outward package. But Jesus begins to pick at the loose strings, and as the outer wrapping unravels, legalistic religion is seen as very unpleasant indeed...

Tuesday, 03 November 2009Mark: to serve & to give | A Walk on Water: the scary, amazing mentoring method of Jesus | Mark 6:45-52 |
Pastor Gary Pauley. Do you struggle with faith even though you are a disciples of Jesus? What about when hard times come to your life? Jesus teaches His followers the deepest lessons in their difficulties. A storm was raging when Jesus calmly walked on the water, and His disciples learned new things about Him at that moment...

Pastor Gary Pauley with a testimony by Jamie Gibson. The death of John the Baptist was a lingering reminder to any disciple of Jesus that the stakes can be high. Jesus kept in the forefront of his teaching that his followers may have a price to pay for following him. Remembering the fate of John the Baptist, the disciples had an opportunity to think about the seriousness of their faith and what it meant to follow their Lord. And so do we.

Pastor Gary Pauley. The time has come for Jesus' disciples to engage... to take what they had been learning from the Lord and launch on their own in ministry. For their ministry debut, Jesus set some ground rules and gave some instructions for effective engagement.
