10 talks from mark’s gospel. Encounter him for yourself in the oldest surviving record.
So read ‘The Bible Talks’ posters around the uni campus this semester, as Wade took us through the gospel and showed us the real Jesus. And what an encounter! It was great to learn about the amazing difference Jesus came to bring to our world, a world of darkness, pain, loss fear and death. But through the cross Jesus has defeated the old power of our world, and called us to a new life. As I prepared a couple of talks in Wade’s absence, I was struck with the contrast Mark shows us between Jesus the King and the world he entered. And the amazing challenge to all of us about who we’re following, Jesus or the world. Do we live our lives for the world, or for Christ Jesus? Do we live a life that worships and glorifies him? Students were encouraged and challenged in the life of making Jesus known to our fallen world. It’s also been great seeing students involved in that life, and to see new students coming to tbt, both believers and unbelievers.
Please continue to pray for this vital ministry at the uni, thanking God for the fruit growing in people’s lives, and asking that it’d continue, and spread.
The sermons were really good this semester. The gospel of mark seems to leave out any padding – it just says the amazing basic gospel message. It was explained really well as who Jesus really is and how it relates to us and how us on campus can change for Him who died for us. Praise be to God for working through His vessels wade and ryan .
