I’m almost done with this first half of going through the book of Mark together with you! I’ve enjoyed creating these videos with a special group of ladies in mind, but I hear they don’t meet during the summer. So, I will likely pause this series and create the second half of Mark (Mark chapters 9-16) during the Fall semester. This means that we are almost done working through the first half of Mark! Remember, these videos and documents will be available online for anyone interested in reviewing them. I hope you (and others) will find encouragement through these videos and helpful points to consider in your journey. I like to say that the first half of Mark asks the question, “Who is Jesus?” We can consider this question too even in our everyday lives.
As usual, I’m sharing 3 points from the chapter, this week we’re on Mark Chapter 7. Download the handout below for the specifics if you like to see things on paper. Afterwards, I introduce a spiritual practice, ‘Simple Presence, ‘ to try this week. Finally I close our time together with a prayer for you in your journey. Timestamps for the video will be in the comments! I’m hopeful we can grow a community online (and in-person) of people who want to engage with God’s Word and one another, together.
What do you gain by joining in on our online book of Mark Bible Break on Thursdays? You’ll get relatable points to consider from each chapter created fresh for you every week! (Well actually I’m creating this with a very special group of hard working women in mind and sharing it to the public.) Join me each week on Thursday for the latest video upload from the book of Mark. Downloadable summary video schedule here.
BE SURE TO read the chapter of Mark 7 (YouVersion Bible app) all the way through on your own or listen to it (Streetlights or The Bible Experience or the NIV Live Audio Bible Experience). The Holy Spirit may want to highlight something for YOU in this season! Share this resource with others who might find engaging and relatable points from the Bible- specifically from the book of Mark – to encourage them forward in their life journey with God.
Cheering you on!
