For the “Smaller Setting” Gospel of Mark community.
Thank you for spurring me on to love and good deeds…
Mark 6:6 – And he marveled because of their unbelief…
Isaiah 59:15b – The LORD saw it, and it displeased him
that there was no justice.
16 He saw that there was no man,
and wondered that there was no one to intercede;
then his own arm brought him salvation,
and his righteousness upheld him.
17 He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
and a helmet of salvation on his head;
he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,
and wrapped himself in zeal as a cloak.
18 According to their deeds, so will he repay,
wrath to his adversaries, repayment to his enemies;
to the coastlands he will render repayment.
19 So they shall fear the name of the LORD from the west,
and his glory from the rising of the sun;
for he will come like a rushing stream,
which the wind of the LORD drives.
20 “And a Redeemer will come to Zion,
to those in Jacob who turn from transgression,” declares the LORD.

For the Sunday night Gospel of Mark community at Blackhawk Ministries, a consistently encouraging song for a consistently transformational community…
Mark 4:35-41 (English Standard Version)
Jesus Calms a Storm
35(A) On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him. 37And a great windstorm arose, and the waves(B) were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. 38But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” 39And he awoke and(C) rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and(D) there was a great calm. 40He said to them, “Why are you(E) so afraid? Have you still no faith?” 41And they were filled with great fear and said to one another,(F) “Who then is this, that even(G) the wind and the sea obey him?”
Psalm 89:8-9 (English Standard Version)
LORD God of hosts,
(A) who is mighty as you are, O(B) LORD,
with your faithfulness all around you?
9You rule the raging of the sea;
when its waves rise, you(C) still them.

John R.W. Stott – The Cross of Christ

1873 William Holman Hunt – The Shadow of Death
Description: The work of a lifetime, from one of the world’s most influential thinkers, about the heart of the Christian faith.
“I could never myself believe in God, if it were not for the cross. . . . In the real world of pain, how could one worship a God who was immune to it?”
“Before we can begin to see the cross as something done for us (leading us to faith and worship), we have to see it as something done by us (leading us to repentance). Indeed, ‘only the man who is prepared to own his share in the guilt of the cross…may claim his share in its grace.’ Horatius Bonar (1808-89), who has been called the ‘prince of Scottish hymn-writers’, expressed it well:
‘Twas I that shed the sacred blood;
I nailed him to the tree;
I crucified the Christ of God;
I joined the mockery.
Of all that shouting multitude
I feel that I am one;
And in that din of voices rude
I recognize my own.
Around the cross the throng I see,
Mocking the Sufferer’s groan;
Yet still my voice it seems to be,
As if I mocked alone

Been thinking a lot about this ever since Jeremy Moore
gave me a bracelet Friday.
Great song, great video.
Watch for the two weeks of sacrifice coming to a classroom near you.
