Today, we explore the account of Jesus calling several of His disciples. In Mark 1:16-20, Jesus outlines a series of steps the disciples took to follow Him—the call, the commission, and the commitment. Jesus invites them to follow Him, so they immediately drop what they are doing and go with Jesus. This invitation wasn’t just for those disciples—each one of us is called to follow Him in the same way. Listen to this episode entitled, “Following Jesus,” to hear about how we can follow Jesus.
As we study the timeless book of Jonah, we discover a revelation of the very heart of God. Our mission today is to unpack what the book of Jonah shows us about God’s heart. Understanding God’s heart matters deeply because we are becoming what we worship. Seeing God for who He is will challenge our common misconceptions and invite us to grow in our understanding of His heart. When we have misperceptions about God, they create barriers in our relationship with Him. Today, we examine three common misconceptions about the heart of God and see how the Book of Jonah debunks those ideas.
Our episode this week is a continuation of last week’s episode “Preparing the Son of Man.” Last week, we examined how Jesus received approval and praise before His ministry. We will continue to look at the other two processes that Jesus went through—authentication and proclamation. J Mark teaches from Mark 1: 9-15 which shows us a closer look at these processes.
The Bible is a captivating book, and high on the list is the incredible account of a man getting swallowed by a fish and living to talk about it. In the book of Jonah, the real point isn’t the fish, the storm, Nineveh, or even Jonah himself, but it is you, the person reading it. The emphasis is on our own hearts.
Today, we’re starting a new series—a deep dive into the book of Jonah. This episode, “Why Jonah?” gives an overview of the book of Jonah using the acronym J-O-N-A-H. Each letter will be a point in our outline introducing this captivating and significant book.
Our episode today examines Jesus and what He experienced to confirm His life here. This lesson, which is divided into two parts, is titled “Preparing the Son of Man,” and it highlights the different processes—approbation (approval), authentication, and proclamation—that Jesus went through to prepare for his ministry. These processes are essential in our preparation for sharing the Good News. Join us as we study Mark 1:9-15.
If you have been with us for this series of study, you know our title was “Jesus, the Suffering Servant.” From our perspective, suffering doesn’t appear to be the pathway to victory. In Mark, we can see from Jesus’ teaching and actions how His suffering culminated in His ultimate triumph. Today is our final episode in this series, titled “The Triumph of the Servant.”
In this episode, we explore the end of Jesus’ journey, where his suffering ends in victory. J. Mark highlights three key facts that point to Jesus’ triumph: his appearances, his commission, and his ascension into heaven.

Mark 16:1-8 For Christ-followers, the resurrection of Jesus is not a debatable issue. By faith, we accept the Bible record as accurate and authoritative.

Mark 1:1 Thank you for joining us as we study God’s Word together. This book is so much more than just a book.
