This World’s Wrong Ideas | The Gospel of Mark: From Throne to Cross and Back

This week, we’ll be studying Mark 8:14-21 under the theme “This World’s Wrong Ideas.” Jesus warns the disciples about the “yeast” of the Pharisees and Herod — showing how the world’s wrong ideas quietly seep into our hearts and shrink our faith. If we’re not paying attention, we’ll worry about bread while the Bread of Life is sitting in the boat.

Series Summary: Fast-paced, urgent, and relentlessly focused on Jesus, the Gospel of Mark shows us not just what Jesus said, but what he did. Written for a Roman world hungry for power, Mark introduces a surprising King - one who comes to serve, to suffer, and to give his life for many. Over the coming weeks, we’ll walk this road with Jesus, from the wilderness to the cross, discovering how the Servant-King’s actions reveal the true good news - and what it means to follow him as disciples who take up our own cross and trust him with our lives.
