Joseph receives back his family. What do we learn about our relationships?

Joseph is faced with difficulty when encountering those who offered nothing but pain and misery. But God gives forgiveness.

Joseph goes from one pit to another. But there is hope.

An empty tomb, witnesses, and fear. If the Gospel of Mark is “the beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ,” then how does it end?

A look at Mark’s depiction of the crucifixion of Jesus. We examine Isaiah 53 and Psalm 22 to explore how Jesus fills the role of Suffering servant, and thus becomes the stand-in vessel to suffer God’s wrath and to inherit God’s blessings. And through it all, we come to realize God’s representative is God himself.

A look at Jesus’ arrest and trials in Mark 14-15.

Judas betrays him with a kiss; but “all the disciples forsook him and fled.” Mark 14 is a look at betrayal…theirs, and ours.

Mark chapter 13 has always been a difficult one to interpret. Some call it the Olivet Discourse. Some call it the “Little Apocalypse.” I call it difficult! In this lesson, we consider the likely reference to the fall of Jerusalem and the possibility of a reference to the cataclysmic change at the end of time.
