Hey there, my friends. Welcome back to the morning mindset. I hope it doesn't sound strange to you

We are your followers, your disciples, Jesus. We want to be faithful as we understand your word. And so help us

understand, use the power of your word to change our hearts and give us what we need to

understand this topic today. We ask in Jesus' name, amen. Okay, we're in Mark chapter 12,

verses 35 through 37. Jesus has made his way to Jerusalem.

He is in the temple courts right now speaking as we read. It says, and Jesus taught in the temple,
