Summary

It can take a real aha moment for us to realize we need to make an improvement. Fortunately, when we reach that point, Jesus is right there to give us lasting transformation. "I Need A Change" is Pastor DawnCheré Wilkerson's impactful talk, part of our Book of Mark study, compelling us all to examine our life's motivations. Ambition is not bad, but having the wrong one will destroy a mission. We ought to wake up to the traps of doing what looks good to increase standing or collecting status symbols to bring validation. Our elevated reputations are not the purpose of our lives. That's why as Christians we must consistently search our hearts and submit the contents over to God. He is faithful to purify and renew our desires so that they match his own.

I hope it encourages you. I hope that it inspires you. Let's check out the message.

0:14.0

If you have your Bible as you can turn with me to Mark chapter 10, we're going to start at verse 32

0:20.0

over really since the beginning of the year. We've been studying one book of the Bible.

0:25.0

We've been studying the book of Mark and I've loved it as we've taken a close look at the life of Jesus.

0:32.0

What he did and how it impacts our day to day. And as you're turning to Mark chapter 10, I just want to tell you the thought that I'm bringing to you today.

0:42.0

It's simply this, I need a change. I need a change wherever you are sitting today or watching. Why don't you say that out loud?

0:53.0

I need a change. Let's pray together, Lord. We know the only way that we can change is by the power of your spirit.

1:02.0

So right now, change us. Change us as we study your life. Change us as we open up our hearts. Change us, Lord.

1:09.0

As we pursue you by the power of your spirit, let us not be the same after day. We love you. We thank you. And everybody said, Amen.

1:21.0

Well, really my goal today as we dive into Mark chapter 10 is that we take some time to just spend a couple days with Jesus.

1:30.0

What does a day in the life of Jesus look like? You know, in order to know someone, sometimes it's great just to follow someone around.

1:39.0

Like, you don't really catch the essence of who they are by just reading what they said. You need to be like in their presence.

1:48.0

What is the day in the life of Jesus like more is caught than taught? And so today we're going to hang with Jesus.

1:57.0

If you're there in Mark chapter 10, if you're not, it'll be on the screen, but hear me. We're diving in. We have tapped the lines.

2:22.0

They were on their way to Jerusalem with Jesus leading the way. So he's ahead of the pack.

2:28.0

And the disciples were astonished while those who followed him were afraid. Again, he took the 12 aside and told them what was going to happen to him.

2:37.0

We're going up to Jerusalem, he said, and the son of man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law.

2:45.0

They will condemn him to death. We'll hand him over to the Gentiles who will mock him and spit on him, flag him and kill him.

2:53.0
