About this episode

Pastor Glenn continues the series on the Gospel of Mark, focusing on chapter 8 and the interaction with the Pharisees after the feeding of the 4000.

We continue our series from the Gospel According to Mark—Kingdom Come, God's Reign in a Chaotic World. This week pastor Glenn will continue for us in chapter 8 following on from the feeding of the 4000 last Sunday. The passage that follows is connected to this story, as we will see, despite Jesus and His disciples taking a boat trip back across the Sea of Galilee and to familiar Jewish territory. As He arrives guess who’s waiting for Him? The Pharisees of course and, as we will learn, they have pointed questions for Jesus. Read Mark 8:11-21 in advance to prepare, and remember to bring your Study Guides!
