Jesus teaches with real authority and it changes everything. In Mark 1:21–34, Jesus amazes the synagogue, casts out a demon, and heals the sick including Peter’s mother in law. This message shows how truth confronts lies, how organized church life helps people flourish, and how Jesus still frees and heals today.
What you will learn:
• Why Jesus taught with authority and why that still matters for preaching today
• How healthy organization in the local church serves people and protects mission
• Why truth triggers spiritual pushback and how believers respond with courage
• What demons know about Jesus and why that should strengthen your faith
• How Jesus frees captives and heals bodies hearts and minds today
Key Scriptures: Mark 1:21–34 John 14:6 John 1:14 John 8:32 Luke 4:18 1 Corinthians 14:33

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
