#8 Mark 6:1-6a "Jesus' Painful Homecoming"
The Gospel of Mark: Servanthood, Discipleship, and Following Jesus
#8 Mark 6:1-6 "Jesus' Painful Homecoming!"
Big Idea: Faith and Unbelief are the two most powerful realities in the world. Unbelief Blinds People to the Obvious (6:1-2), Unbelief Builds Up the Irrelevant (6:3-4) and Unbelief Blocks the Supernatural (6:5-6).
Introduction
Did any of your former classmates surprise you at your class reunion because of the incredible or unexpected things they had accomplished in their life? How did you feel about it? Were you happy, proud, jealous or skeptical?
Discussion Questions
Why might the people in Jesus' hometown have resented Him? Is the response of a person's hometown and family a reliable indicator of whether that the person is genuine and legitimate? List some of the things Jesus said and did that are astonishing. Do non-christian friends and family in your life acknowledge that He said and did those things? If so, how do they reconcile this with their unbelief? If not, what reasons do they give for rejecting Jesus' astonishing teachings, miracles, etc?
How is it possible for a persona to see what Jesus did and yet deny that He is the Savior, the Son of God? What kind of credentials do you expect spiritual leaders to have? Are the most important credentials where they went to school, how well-spoken they are, who recommends them, or something else? Why was Jesus' community in Nazareth offended by him? Why might the people in our life be offended by Jesus? Jesus doesn't do any mighty miracles because of the unbelief of the people. Does Unbelief limit God's power in our lives? Are there examples in the scriptures of God doing miracles despite people's unbelief?
Prayer Time
Take a moment to share what your next step of discipleship will be and how your family, friends or Community Group can be praying for you and supporting you.
The Waldensians: The First Evangelicals?
People sometimes claim that Protestant views were new to the 16th century, but in fact there were many proto-Protestant groups throughout the medieval era that anticipated Protestant concerns. Here I give an overview of one such group, the Waldensians, followers of Peter Waldo (12th century). I cove a bit of their history and some of the persecutions they faced, and then a bit of their theology.
Truth Unites is a mixture of apologetics and theology, with an irenic focus.
Gavin Ortlund (PhD, Fuller Theological Seminary) serves as senior pastor of First Baptist Church of Ojai.

Bari Weiss | The Ben Shapiro Show Sunday Special Ep. 119
After working years in the legacy media, Bari Weiss is now stepping away from the biggest news outlets in the country, and is in the midst of crafting her own media property. She is producing with the freedom to investigate and pursue stories she simply didn’t have before and features unique conversations and stories that reflect the most fundamental issues in the country.
Bari wrote about and popularized the Intellectual Dark Web at the New York Times back in 2018 and finally joins us in this episode to discuss why she’s been avoiding joining my show these past 3 years. Plus, we will talk about her experience being attacked across the internet and media, as well as some ideas that may help preserve the country’s political middle.

Al-Maidah Training - Loving Our Muslim Friends and Neighbors
Al-Ma'idah Initiative
"Loving Your Muslim Friends and Neighbors" Training Seminar
Sunday, October 17
Here is the video recording of James Raymant of the Al-Ma’idah Initiative at Rainier Valley Church this last Sunday, October 17th. Our hope and prayer is that this resource would help educate, equip, and encourage us to engage our Muslim Friends and Neighbors with the good news of Jesus. This is a great chance to learn about Islam and be practically equipped to share your faith with the Muslims in your life!
#7 Mark 4:35-5:43 "Jesus' Authority over Disaster, Demons and Death"
Big Idea: Someone will have authority over you life, the question is who and why? Jesus has authority over storms, spirits, and suffering. Jesus demonstrates his authority over nature by silencing the storm. Jesus demonstrates his authority over demons by casting them out. Jesus demonstrates his authority over suffering by healing. Jesus is the creator, the Lord, and the healer.
How will we respond and live in life of the authority of King Jesus?
