In this podcast, Erin Warren teaches through Mark 8, a turning point in this Gospel. A hungry crowd once again gathers and Jesus provides miraculously. But what makes this miracle powerful is where it takes place. Jesus continues to be grieved by the hardness of the Pharisees and warns His disciples, who still do not fully perceive who He is (even though Peter confesses Jesus as Christ). Jesus plainly predicts His suffering, rejection, death, and resurrection and calls us to lay down our lives as well. The Gospel of Mark challenges the expected ideal of the Messiah—not a conquering king or a wish-granting genie, but rather a man of sorrows and a suffering servant. This short yet impactful account of Jesus’ life reveals the character of the One who came to save us.  Jesus was not what they were expecting; He was better. Links Mentioned in this Episode:Advent Study: ⁠⁠⁠⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/WayMakerFor more information on this study: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/MarkFor recommended resources: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Resources⁠For more information on studying Scripture: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/HowTo⁠Erin's books and other studies: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Books⁠For speaking inquiries: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Speaking
