What does it mean to be a person of integrity? How does the fear of man lead to hypocrisy, dishonesty, cowardice, and favoritism? And what does Jesus teach us by His example? In this message, we contrast the man-centered fear that controlled Israel's religious leaders with the God-centered courage, impartiality, faithfulness, and integrity of Christ. Against the dark backdrop of human sin, the glory of Jesus shines even brighter. ...

In this parable, a vineyard owner responds to shocking rebellion with patience that's, frankly, hard to believe. Everyone in the parable behaves in ways that sound unrealistic—even ridiculous.

Discover what Jesus was revealing about the human heart—and how understanding God's astonishing patience can d...

When temptation strikes, we instinctively weigh the consequences. But what if God told you, "For this sin, there would be no consequences. I'm simply telling you no." How much weight would the sheer fact of God's authority carry in your heart? This paints a disturbing picture of false teachers who thought so little of God's authority that they boldly rushed in where angels literally fear to tread. God's authority is one of the most...

Whenever God speaks, you can listen in a way that increases your sensitivity to his voice or in a way that deadens your ability to hear God. Some spiritual ignorance is innocent. But very often, ignorance is due to unwillingness to accept what God has revealed. Agnosticism is not an intellectually respectable position. More often than not, it's simply willful ignorance. In this expository sermon from Mark 11:27–33, we examine one...

The cursing of the fig tree stands out as Jesus' only miracle of destruction. Some reject this miracle as being beneath the Jesus we know. Did he really get so annoyed about not getting a fig that he would destroy the tree—even though he knew it wasn't the season for figs? Or is there a deeper lesson? This Bible teaching explores: • Why Jesus cursed the fig tree • Whether this was a "bad miracle" • The fig tree as a prophetic obje...

In Mark 11, Jesus tells his disciples they can hurl mountains into the sea, and in the very same week prays, "Not my will, but yours." What is the balance between approaching the throne with bold, impassioned prayers and surrendering to God's will above our own? Was Jesus promising Christians the power to move literal mountains? Why didn't the apostles ever do it? And why does Jesus connect mountain-moving faith with forgiveness? ...

What did Jesus really accomplish when He cursed the fig tree and overturned the tables in the Temple? In this in-depth expository teaching from Mark 11:11–24, we uncover a powerful and often misunderstood moment in Jesus' final days.

If your life were recorded in Scripture—your actions, thoughts, motives, words—would you be considered one of the righteous? Are you righteous? What's the standard?

Why would Jesus kill a tree—on purpose? Why was he crying during his triumphal entry? Why did he cleanse a temple that was about to be destroyed? And what do those events teach us about how to have a productive, fruitful life that brings pleasure to God? In Mark 11, we see how these seemingly strange actions come together to show us how to fulfill God's wonderful plan for his people. If you enjoy the episode, please consider subsc...

Why do even the smallest injustices bother us so much? We long for justice—but do we still want it when it's perfect? And final? Peter takes us back in time and shows us a kind of justice that reaches higher, wider, and deeper than we ever imagined. And it forces us to wrestle with what we really want.

Bartimaeus is the only person Jesus healed who is named on the pages of Scripture. Why is it so important that we know his name and his father's name? The answer will turn your world upside-down (or more accurately, right-side up)! As Jesus leaves Jericho on His way to the cross, a desperate cry breaks through the noise: "Son of David, have mercy on me!" While others try to silence him, Bartimaeus persists—and what follows is far ...

What does true greatness look like in the kingdom of God? In Mark 10:41–45, Jesus confronts a power struggle among His disciples and reveals a radical truth: greatness is found in servanthood, not control. When James and John sought positions of honor, the other disciples became indignant—exposing a deeper problem in every human heart: the desire for human greatness and power over others.

In this in-depth, verse-by-verse exposition of Mark 10:35–40, we examine one of the most revealing moments in the Gospel of Mark: James and John boldly asking Jesus for the top two positions in His glory.
