Mark: The Gospel in Action
What does it look like to put the gospel in action? It’s a question we think a lot about here at PEPC. And the best way to find the answer is to look to Jesus Christ. Not just as a great teacher or moral example but someone who literally incarnates the gospel in the way He lived, died, and rose again. Jesus Himself is clear. He is looking for disciples. Men and women who answer His call to deny themselves, pick up a cross, and follow Him. Jesus promises such people will be filled with the Holy Spirit and will accomplish even greater things than He did, performing all kinds of signs and wonders in His name. Jesus promises such people will literally change the world in the way they live and relate to others and serve those around them, especially the poor and powerless, the widow and orphaned, and those marginalized by society. Perhaps most importantly, Jesus promises such people will live and reign with Him forever when heaven comes to earth and all things are made new. This is the hope and promise of the gospel, friends, and it is a gift given to all those who place their faith in Jesus! Make sure to invite your friends, family, neighbors, and anyone else you know who has ever been curious about Jesus to join us as we dive into the Gospel of Mark and experience the Gospel in Action!
