Insiders Out
from Trinity Church Messages Hosted by Trinity Church
Join us this week when we continue our journey through the book of Mark. In this story we come face-to-face with a truth that runs throughout Mark’s gospel: that it is often the religious insiders who most miss out on who Jesus is and what he is trying to do. They have let their religious rules, regulations, and self-righteousness get in the way of actually understanding the heart and purposes of God. By contrast, it is the people who know they aren’t perfect (like the Syrophoenician woman) who display the greatest faith, because they know that Jesus is the only one who can meet their deepest needs. As a result, He is more welcomed by the outsiders than the insiders.
