Hey, this is Rich Wilkerson. I'm the pastor of Vood Church in Miami, Florida, and this is our podcast.

Thank you so much for checking it out today. I hope it encourages you and inspires you.

Here's today's message.

Hey, I'm pumped because we are currently, we're in the final stretch of our six month study.

If you can believe it, six months in one gospel, the gospel of Mark, we've been diving deep for the past six months, starting in January, and we're actually wrapping it up.

This is our final collection of talks. We call it on the money. Somebody say on the money.

Come on in the chat. Type on the money.

On the money. That's what we're talking about for these next couple of weeks.

And we're right here at the end of our study.

And it's been incredible. So far, I've loved it. We've been learning in the past two weeks. Pastor Rich brought incredible messages around this thought.

So this collection is framed by this brilliant answer that Jesus gave to a very difficult question.

He was approached in Mark chapter 12 by a man generally wanting to know the answer.

He heard them debating, talking, questioning Jesus, and he heard he gave a good answer. So he asked them a question that he had.

And he said, Teacher, what's the greatest commandment? And Jesus gave him this brilliant answer.

He said, love the Lord your God with all of your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all of your strength.

And that simple little answer is serving as the framework for a whole conversation in this collection.

And we're in week three right now, week one, we got to talk about this first word, loving God with your heart.

And Pastor Rich brought a message called, what God wants.

We went to this case study of a woman named Mary. She's the sister of a guy named Lazarus who maybe rings a bell.

Mary got to see Jesus raise her brother from the dead.

She sees that in this exchange, this interaction at the table.

Mary breaks all the social norms. She breaks the rules. She approaches a table full of men.
