Kingdom Values || Mark 9:30-41

In this episode, Bible teacher J. Mark explores the values Jesus taught His disciples in Mark 9:30-41.

Mark shows how Jesus modeled servant-hearted living as the suffering servant, welcomed the overlooked, and called His followers to work together in unity. This episode encourages believers to seek first the kingdom of God by embracing these values.
