The Personal Call of a Risen King

What if the resurrection isn’t just true—but personal? Today, we begin our journey back into the Gospel of Mark, and in His very first public words, Jesus doesn’t offer advice—He issues a call: “Repent and believe the good news.” It’s not about adding religion to your life; it’s about laying down your life to follow the risen King. This is a moment of decision. The kingdom has come near… so how will you respond?

From Series: "The Good News: the Gospel of Mark"  As we look at the first 8 chapters of The Gospel of Mark, we will see Jesus moving with urgency — healing the sick, casting out demons, and teaching with unparalleled authority. And everywhere He goes, He announces one central message: “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!” But Jesus didn’t just proclaim this message — He demonstrated it as well. Everywhere Jesus went, He showed people who He is, and how that is good news for all of humanity. In The Gospel of Mark: The Good News, we will explore the revolutionary way Jesus reveals Himself and calls us to respond to the good news of His Kingdom. The good news goes so far beyond salvation – it's an invitation to transform our lives, day in and day out.
