About this episode
The episode explores the mission of Jesus as articulated in Mark 1:29-45, emphasizing the importance of staying true to that mission amidst potential distractions.
Proclaiming the good news of God. Preaching that the Kingdom of God has come near. Calling all to repent and believe the gospel. Mark articulated the mission statement of Jesus in just those two verses. So, fully aware of the threats of mission drift, we are going to look at a big chunk of narrative text that helps us understand the mission of Jesus Christ. And, in so doing, we will hopefully be drawn even more closely into that mission.
