This Sunday, we continue our series from the Gospel According to Mark—Kingdom Come, God's Reign in a Chaotic World. This week pastor Glenn will take us further into Mark chapter 7, with the story about an interaction between Jesus and a woman whose child is possessed by a demon. This is a pivotal moment in the gospel of Mark and in the ministry of Jesus. Moving beyond the Sea of Galilee and His primary ministry hub in Capernaum, Jesus enters a region that—while physically close—is culturally and religiously distinct from the Jewish world where He has been preaching. There are powerful lessons to be found in this encounter. Read Mark 7:24-30 in advance to prepare, and remember to bring your Study Guides!
