Through Mark’s Gospel two major questions keep appearing, who is Jesus? And how should we respond to him? These two themes, Christology and discipleship, fill Mark’s Gospel. Each of us must answer these two questions. Your answers will direct the course of your life: Who is Jesus? And how will you respond to him?

215. Guard the Gospel Courageously
April 14, 2024 • Bruce Miller
Paul wrote Timothy a letter to challenge him to guard the gospel courageously. Christianity was not cool in the Roman Empire. The cultural pressure was firmly against the gospel, intellectually, politically, and morally. If you wanted friends and respect, you would not be a Christian. Being a Christian could not only get you canceled and cost you business, but be beaten by the police of the day, thrown in jail, and even killed.

We’re starting a new series today focusing on a letter from the New Testament, 2nd Timothy. In some ways this particular letter functions a little bit like my husband’s letter to me in that Paul wrote it to encourage Timothy to trust in what he already knew to be true only this time, in the truth of the gospel.
