SEEING JESUS IN JERUSALEM
Look Closely: Today, we enter the third geographical section of the book of Mark; Jesus’ traveling ministry is complete, and He arrives in Jerusalem for the last time. Skim through the chapters quickly – read only the headings if that’s what you have time for. Over the next week, you will read this much more carefully.
What passages stand out to you today? Are there any details or stories that grabbed your attention in particular? Make a note in your journal to dig deeper into these in the days ahead.
Although the Gospel of Mark is only sixteen chapters long, Mark spends six full chapters describing the week leading up to and including Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection, sometimes known as Holy Week or Passion Week. What does this intense focus reveal about Mark’s primary message and intention for writing a Gospel?
Challenge: Try to identify an example of each of Mark’s key themes.
-Son of God/ Son of Man: How does this picture of Jesus compel me to live differently?
-Cosmic Conflict: What circumstances do I need to see through spiritual eyes?
-Discipleship & Failure: What is holding me back from looking more like Jesus?
-Ordinary Heroes: What is my next small step of obedience today?
Sobre este plano
In a world of hostility, corruption, and confusion, a regular guy named Mark wrote his gospel to boldly proclaim that Jesus is THE good news. Mark writes with urgency and purpose, giving you a front-row seat to the Story of Jesus. This plan will help you understand that Story through the teachings, miracles, discipleship, and life of Jesus so that you can follow Jesus as his disciple.
