What does it truly mean to submit to the will of God? How can we learn from Jesus' perfect submission and apply it to our own lives? Join us as we journey through Mark 14 and 15, revealing four powerful moments of Jesus' submission to the Father's will, and discuss how they can inspire us to live a life of surrender.
Uncovering the depths of Jesus' submission, we delve into the anointing at Bethany, the institution of the Lord's Supper, the prayers in the Garden of Gethsemane, and Jesus' trial, flogging, and crucifixion. We also explore the importance of submission within Christianity, tracing its origins to the Garden of Eden and examining how the lie used to deceive Eve has infiltrated the church. With a closer look at controversial subjects like wives submitting to their husbands, we discuss how men can lead by example in submitting to God, leading to greater harmony within the home.
Lastly, we share the significance of surrendering to God's will, as a tool for overcoming our addictions and struggles. By learning from Jesus' example of perfect submission, we can find true freedom and healing. So, gather with us for this thought-provoking and powerful sermon as we uncover the profound lessons of Jesus' submission to the Father's will, and how it can transform our own lives.
This 3-part series delves into the book of Mark, examining the identity of Christ as both the authoritative Son of God and the redemptive Suffering Servant. We explore how these two aspects were integral to Jesus' earthly ministry and the reasons behind Mark's choice to emphasize them in his writing. Additionally, we consider the relevance of these themes to our lives today. We pray God encounters you wherever you're at.
