See-ers of Golgotha | Believing is Seeing
The greatest truth in history hung on a cross, yet those closest to it completely missed it because Jesus didn't meet their expectations of what a king should be. While soldiers mocked and religious leaders sneered, Jesus was accomplishing the ultimate act of grace by refusing to save himself so he could save us. Mark 15 challenges us not to overlook what's right in front of us: God's goodness...

God's Plan Comes True in Weakness | Believing is Seeing

A Death that Leads to Life | The Gospel of Mark: From Throne to Cross and Back
This week, we’ll study Mark 8:34–9:1 under the theme “A Death That Leads to Life. After Peter resists a suffering Messiah, Jesus makes it clear: you cannot follow him while trying to save yourself. The instinct to protect our plans, preserve our reputation, or maintain control when following him feels wise — but Jesus says it leads to loss. Only a crucified Messiah can show how losing your life...

It's About Jesus, Not You | Believing is Seeing
Peter boldly declares he'll never abandon Jesus, even as Christ predicts his three-time denial. As we ponder our Savior's passion, we're confronted with a freeing truth: our salvation isn't about being stronger or more faithful than others, but about what Jesus accomplished on the cross and through His resurrection.Series Summary: The religious leaders at the cross hurled a challenge at Jesus:...
