Summary
Remember the thrill of the "trust fall" game from childhood? The exhilarating moment you fall backward and rely entirely on a friend to catch you. In this program, we will learn a simple yet profound spiritual truth at the heart of that game. It is not the amount of faith we have that matters but the object we put our faith in. Join Chip in Mark chapter 9 as the disciples realize why this Jesus they are following is worthy of their complete faith and trust.
Main Points
I. The Kingdom and power = Mark 9:1-29- The power revealed = Mark 9:1-13
- The power resisted = Mark 9:14-29
