About the series: Jesus encountered people who were skeptical of him as well as those who were deeply scarred by the pains from life on a fallen world. This is still true today. We will take a closer look at these stories of skeptics and scars from the Gospel of Mark and how they apply us today.
About this week's message: Church hurt can produce scars. It can also turn people into skeptics. The Pharisees were not engaging in anything illegal or immoral within their leadership roles; instead, they were characterized by legalism, condemnation, and control. We'll cover how to respond in a healthy way to church hurt.
Key Phrase: “Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus.” Mark 3:2

About this week's message: We can be so arrogant and condescending towards certain groups of people. The mercy and grace of Jesus is extended to you as well as to “those” people you might view beneath you. I love the fact that Jesus chose Matthew, one of “those” tax collectors, who would have a profound global effect for the gospel, even today!
Key Phrase: “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” Mark 2:16

About this week's message: We don’t know the backstory of how this man became paralyzed. Jesus, however, saw beyond his physical condition and wanted to heal him of his real need: the forgiveness of his sins. This declaration revealed a different kind of paralyzation within the audience: pharisaical paralyzation.
Key Phrase: “Who can forgive sins but God alone?” Mark 2:7

About this week's message: We live in a county and a culture where the darkness is growing. Demonic forces are real and the battle between spiritual forces is alive and well today. This darkness brings about lots of pain and scars that many are unaware of its source. The only answer is Jesus! Key Phrase: “I know who you are - the Holy One of God!” Mark 1:24

THE CLOCK IS TICKING (Part 4) • "Jesus Will Return!" • Barry Bandara

About the series: Peter’s death was imminent, and he knew his time was short. This reality prompted Peter to write again but this time his tone was more intense. He wanted the early church to know: 1. God loves this world and is determined to rescue it! And 2. God will confront and deal with evil for the sake of a new forever future!
About this week's message: The many false teachers in Peters’ day lived with their lives of sin and immorality with little to no consequences. Therefore, they mocked that judgment was not coming. Peter gives evidence that God ultimately will bring divine justice based upon how God has brought it in the past.
Key Phrase: “He did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on it ungodly people.” 2 Peter 2:5

About this week's message: Peter was adamantly against what some false teachers were teaching: the stories of Jesus were made up stories. Peter was not only an eyewitness of the glory of Christ, but the prophets of God described the same things. These false accusations are still around today.
Key Phrase: “For we did not follow cleverly devised stories…” 2 Peter 1:16

HATS: Roles Parents Play (Part 4) • "Player" • Barry Bandara
Monday May 19, 2025

About the series:
Following the baseball analogy, parents (and grandparents) have 4 clearly defined roles in scripture. These 4 roles need to be taken seriously and applied consistently. If this happens, the child and the adults will be blessed beyond measure!
About this week's message: One of the most unique aspects of the game of baseball, it’s the only sport where the coaches wear a uniform (with a #) just like every player. This is symbolic of life of both parent and children. As long as a parent still has breath, they are playing the game of life just like their kids are. Every parent has the opportunity to live and build a lasting legacy that will far outlive their days on planet earth.
Key Phrase: “Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead.” Philippians 3:13
