2 timothy 3:12

Gabriel Castro, Youth Director, resumes with part 8 of the series that is an epic journey through the New Testament Gospel of Mark, verse by verse. The book of Mark was probably the first gospel book written, and is generally attributed to John Mark, a close associate of Peter, and also of Paul and Barnabas. It's all about Jesus and the good news (Gospel) of the kingdom of God. How do we become members of this kingdom? Who was Jesus really, this preacher who went about doing the business of his Father and asking people to follow him?

Pastor Marc Sharp's message today is about piling up stones...what? By the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Alabama is a simple pile of large granite stones on which is etched the Bible passage for today : “When your children shall ask you in the time to come, saying, What mean these stones? Then you shall tell them how you made it over.” A testimony of hard times and struggle. Testimonies are not free - they are costly, often coming through pain, persecution, trial, or warfare. But even so, God answers prayer, brings deliverance, and rains down mercy all the time. When he does, it’s important for us to pile up stones, so that we can remember and point back to them, praising God for his faithfulness. Do you have piled up stones in your life?
