TO FOLLOW and TO SERVE The Gospel of MARK CONFESSING CHRIST MARK 10 Theme Verse - Mark 10 : 49 "Take heart, get up, he is calling you."
Overview: Each of the passages covered in Mark 10 includes a tough question. Some are questions asked of Jesus, others are the tough questions Jesus poses for those who encounter him. Marriage, divorce, children, power, prestige and sacrificial living are all discussed. What it means to be a disciple of Jesus stands at the heart of all of these exchanges.
