“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. (Mark 16:6, NIV)

What does it mean to follow Jesus? Mark’s gospel ends with an empty tomb, and the promise of Jesus’ resurrection. Mark doesn’t record the women at the tomb meeting Jesus, but they are told to believe his promises and to go and find him just where he said he would be.

What does it mean to follow Jesus? To believe what he said, and to know him.

I hope that you’ll be able to join us in-person or online this Sunday, as celebrate the resurrection of Jesus together.

Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate … had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified. (Mark 15:15, NIV)

Who is Jesus? Mark starts his gospel by describing Jesus as the Christ — God’s rescuing king. As we follow Jesus’ journey through Mark we see Jesus demonstrating his power and authority over nature, sickness, evil and death. This Sunday is usually called Palm Sunday, where we remember the crowds in Jerusalem welcoming Jesus as God’s king. We also Jesus betrayal, abandonment and arrest. The only crown Jesus wears is one made of thorns.

Who is Jesus?

I hope that you’ll be able to join us in-person or online this Sunday, as we look at Jesus Christ together. Is he really God’s king?
