"The Shepard and His Sheep" - Mark 6:30-44

"When Men Play God" - Mark 7:1-13

In this sermon on Mark 7, the preacher examines Jesus’ confrontation with the Pharisees over their man-made traditions that replace God’s commandments. He contrasts legalism and liberalism, warns against judging others by extra-biblical rules, and urges believers to trust God’s authority and show grace to those who differ.

“Christ Sees, Knows, & Pursues His People” - Mark 6:45-56

After feeding the 5,000, Jesus sends his disciples by boat and climbs a mountain to pray. In the night he walks on the sea, reveals himself as the God of the Old Testament who "passes by," and comforts his terrified disciples with the words, "Take heart, it is I. Do not be afraid." The episode emphasizes that miracles point to the Messiah—God made flesh—who sees, intercedes for, and ultimately saves his people, calling them to trust him rather than chase spiritual experiences.

"The Shepard and His Sheep" - Mark 6:30-44

In Mark 6 the preacher walks through Jesus’ response to a desperate crowd: compassion, teaching, and the miracle of feeding the 5,000. He connects the scene to Ezekiel 34 to show Jesus as the promised shepherd who feeds and guides his sheep. The sermon highlights the call to trust Christ in crisis, the danger of chasing spiritual experiences, and the need to rely on Jesus’ provision and teaching rather than our own strength.

"The Cost of Courage, The Folly of A Coward" - Mark 6:14-29

This episode examines Mark 6:14–29, recounting John the Baptist’s imprisonment and beheading by Herod at Herodias’ request, and the growing fame of Jesus. Using the story, the speaker explores themes of cowardice, compromise, and how sin takes advantage of opportunity, urging listeners to examine their own hearts and live boldly for Christ rather than negotiating with evil.

"Trusting Our Sending Savior" - Mark 6:7-13

This episode studies Mark 6:7–13 where Jesus sends the Twelve out as apostles, two by two, giving them authority and power while calling them to rely on God’s provision. It explores themes of commissioned ministry, working together amid tension, trusting that authority and power come from Christ, and expecting both healing and rejection. The message encourages listeners to be faithful in sharing the gospel, depend on God rather than comforts or credentials, and accept that some will reject the message—knocking the dust off as a testimony—while trusting God’s providence for the work ahead.
