S10 Episode 2: Unexpected Savior - Mark 1

Mark begins his gospel proclaiming that this is the good news of Jesus Christ. While on the surface it appears to be a quick overview of the beginning of Jesus's ministry, Mark's structure helps us see a pattern of proclaiming a truth then proving it with an example. Here, Mark begins with a creation parallel, an example of what it looks like "to turn to" Jesus, and a profound picture of what Jesus came to do.The Gospel of Mark challenges the expected ideal of the Messiah—not a conquering king or a wish-granting genie, but rather a man of sorrows and a suffering servant. This short yet impactful account of Jesus’ life reveals the character of the One who came to save us.  Jesus was not what they were expecting; He was better.For a link to "Even Better Than Eden" by Nancy Guthrie and other recommended resources, go to www.FeastingOnTruth.com/Resources.For more information on this study: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/MarkFor recommended resources: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Resources⁠For more information on studying Scripture: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/HowTo⁠Erin's books and other studies: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Books⁠For speaking inquiries: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Speaking
