Dealing With the Pharisee in Me
Mark 2:23-28
So much Christian living has been reduced to simply maintaining the form and function of religious things. Christ wants more than our habits - He wants our hearts! Too often we see this hypocrisy in others but fail to see it creeping into our own lives.

Questions, Questions, Questions!
Mark 2:18-22
Pharisees don't ask questions as students - they ask as skeptics. Their questions reveal a lack of sincerity. Are we more concerned with truth or with our opinions and how we appear to others?

The Spirit of the Pharisees
Mark 2:13-17
The spirit of a Pharisee is seen quickly in our attitude toward others...especially those who are despised in our world. When we fail to realize the sinfulness of our own hearts we begin to think more highly of ourselves than we should. Look at yourself and others through the eyes of Jesus!

Busy…But Not in a Hurry
Mark 1:35-39
No person who has ever lived had more to do than the One who said, "I must be about my Father's business." Yet He never seemed to be in a hurry! His words and works grew out of His private times of communion with His Father. In our busy world we must learn not to hurry past the Lord. Make time for prayer.

The Servant Who Introduced the Servant
Mark 1:2-8
Mark knew something about service; he is identifed in Scripture as a "minister." His book presents Christ as the perfect Servant. How appropriate that a humble servant named John the Baptist would be used to pave the way for Him. In these few verses we learn the one mark of a true servant.
