The Small Beginnings of Great Things

Mark shows us “the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ” (v. 1). After introducing John the Baptist, he includes three (really four) foundational scenes that mark the beginning movement of the gospel—from the lips of Jesus to those who followed Him and then took it around the world. I. Identification (v. 9) II. Confirmation (vv. 10-11) III. Confrontation (vv. 12-13) IV. Proclamation (vv. 14-15) Learn Your Bible: What does this passage teach you about how God works before great things begin? Love Your Neighbor: Share the gospel with a friend or family member this week—or simply invite them to our Good Friday and Easter services. Live in Freedom: What step of obedience is God calling you to take so you can walk in freedom and purpose as you follow Jesus? Talk with kids: Why do we have to turn from our sin to trust Jesus as Savior?
