The Offensive Message of Jesus

Text: Mark 6:1-13 | Speaker: Levi Bakerink | Description: In the next section of Mark's gospel, we find that not everyone responds to Jesus' message with faith. In his hometown of Nazareth, he is looked down upon and rejected. They take offense at him and his message. But that doesn't stop the mission as he sends out his disciples to continue the work. When we take these two sections together we find the connection that if we follow Jesus, like his disciples did, then we can expect rejection like Jesus did.
