Faith Boot Camp 2: Overcoming a Critical Spirit - Mark 2:1-3:6

Even though we're people of faith and we want to live lives of faith, our faith is always mixed with unbelief. It seems like faith and unbelief collide in us daily. We believe in the goodness and the sovereignty of God, yet our minds can sometimes be consumed with other things. For example, the bank account can make us depressed And make us despondent over an uncertain future. Or, though we know our lives are in the hands of God, we can be consumed by the instability in the world. Sometimes we're able to be in the place of like pure faith. For example, in the hospital room with a loved one, when we have no more choices, we have nowhere to turn but to God, and we find his peace comes and strengthens us. The thing I want to think about here today is how to overcome unbelief. We're walking through the Gospel of Mark in a series called Faith Boot Camp and I wanna read starting at Mark 2:1.
