Hey, this is Stephen Ferdick.

I'm the pastor of Elevation Church, and this is our podcast.

I wanted to thank you for joining us today.

Hope this inspires you.

Hope it builds your fate.

Hope it gives you perspective to see God is moving in your life.

Enjoy the message.

We're continuing in a series called Savage Jesus.

I planned the conclusion of this series to align with Easter.

Then when I found out that we were learning so much in having our paradigm of Jesus challenged

and really starting to see him in a fresh way, I thought we would continue

for a little while longer. So we're in the bonus round today of this series from Mark's

Gospel. And I'll pick up at Mark chapter 3, verse 1. And now that you've rested for a four

minutes, stand up for the reading of God's word. Thank you so much.

Another time Jesus went into the synagogue and a man with a shrivelled hand was there. Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus. So they watched him closely

to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath.

Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, stand up in front of everyone.

Then Jesus asked them, which is lawful on the Sabbath, to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill.

But they remained silent.

He looked around at them in anger.

In anger.

Come on, be nice, Jesus.
