About the series: Jesus encountered people who were skeptical of him as well as those who were deeply scarred by the pains from life on a fallen world. This is still true today. We will take a closer look at these stories of skeptics and scars from the Gospel of Mark and how they apply us today.
About this week's message: We can be so arrogant and condescending towards certain groups of people. The mercy and grace of Jesus is extended to you as well as to “those” people you might view beneath you. I love the fact that Jesus chose Matthew, one of “those” tax collectors, who would have a profound global effect for the gospel, even today!
Key Phrase: “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” Mark 2:16
