Beauty & Betrayal

Mark 14: 1-11, 17-19

In Mark 14, we find two stories of loyal followers betraying God, themselves, and their neighbors for the sake of self-preservation. Right in the middle of them is an incredibly beautiful story of an unnamed woman who pours out all that she has in devotion to her relationship with Jesus. We are often all 3 stories, and thankfully God loves each of us right in the middle of the mess and glory of our lives.

You Don’t Need A Bucket List

As we conclude the Gospel of Mark, we are taken to a place where we see the apex of humanity. The resurrected Jesus, who is the “firstfruits of the dead”, meaning we get to see OUR future. A future of love and hope, where sickness, disease and death is no more. So, if this is true, what does mean for our present life today?

Finding Life in a World of Death

September 4, 2016 • Tyler Gorsline

Jesus dies. His followers are going to his tomb to put the finishing touches on the death of their hope. What they find is staggering. The grave is open and Jesus is gone. This scene leaves us asking what are our expectations about life and death? According to the Natl Institute of Mental Health says that 68% of us fear death, and we often live lives of perpetual anxiety. Is their more than YOLO? Is their more than just dying and going to heaven? Can we truly live resurrected lives starting now on earth as it is in heaven? Lives of resurrected power? Check out this sermon from Tyler Gorsline to hear more.

All of us are searching for meaning, hope and forgiveness. We all aim to “become something” and will often distort things in order to achieve this. Jesus Christ came to bring us life and meaning with the ultimate act being his crucifixion on the cross. Come to discover this together.
