Everyone loves a mountain-top experience. Whether literal or figurative, they are moments that mark our lives and serve to inspire us and often propel us forward to what lies ahead. However, when it comes to faith, it seems that when people have ‘mountain-top’ experiences, they often desire to stay there on the mountain and linger or memorialize the experience in such a way that it can obstruct their realization of the very reasons and purposes for which God intended.

Part 36: I Once Was Blind

December 10, 2023 • Brian Stanley • Mark 10:32–52

As Jesus attempts to prepare His disciples for His death, their spiritual blindness was similar to another’s physical blindness. In order to see Christ’s Kingdom clearly, Jesus must heal our blinded eyes in order for us to regain our spiritual sight.

Part 35: When Riches Rob You

December 3, 2023 • Brian Stanley • Mark 10:17–31, Matthew 6:19–21, Luke 12:21, 1 Timothy 6:7–10, Revelation 3:17

On this week’s episode of ‘Jesus says the darndest things’ we learn of camels and the unlikely scenario they could ever fit through the eye of a needle. We also learn that where trusting in riches can rob us of a relationship with God, our greatest riches in life will flow from putting God first in everything.

Part 34: Start Acting Like a Child

November 26, 2023 • Brian Stanley • Mark 10:13–16, Matthew 18:3–4

It’s funny. Many of us experienced several moments in life where we were expressly told to ‘stop acting like a child!’. And then there is Jesus, how according to Mark’s gospel, tells us to ‘start acting like children!’ What on earth did he mean by this? Join us this week as Pastor Brian unpacks what Jesus intended for His hearers.
