February 14, 2021: Jesus Transfigured

Transfiguration Sunday

Text: Mark 9:2-9

February 7, 2021: Healing

Healed!

Texts: Mark 1:29-39

      When Jesus healed, he healed and restored the whole person. The followers of Jesus Christ are called to pray for sick people and heal and restore the whole person and society.


January 31, 2021: Deliverance From An Evil Spirit

Delivered

Text: Mark 1:21-28

     Jesus heals a man by driving the evil spirit out of him.

The advancement of God’s kingdom signals the healing and delivering of people, nations, and the world from the evil spirits. The followers of Jesus Christ are called to heal the world by driving out the evil powers that choke people’s lives.


January 24, 2021: The Practice of Stillness

Uncluttered

Texts: Jonah 3:1-5, 10, Mark 1:14-20

     Following Jesus requires a de-cluttering of unnecessary and harmful stuff in our lives that clog our emotional and spiritual arteries. The practice of stillness in God helps us to de-clutter our life to follow Jesus better.


January 17, 2021: The Calling of Disciples

Come and See

Texts: John 1:43-51

     Following Jesus requires a constant “coming” near to him, as we go away from other things, and to be led by the Spirit to “see” what Jesus is doing in our midst so that we can participate in Jesus’ ministry.


January 10, 2021: Baptism of Jesus Christ

Out of the Water

Texts: Genesis 1:1-5, Mark 1:4-11

     Out of the (chaotic) water, God creates the universe. Out of the (deep) water, Jesus begins his ministry. God is always turning our chaos into creation. We need to remind ourselves that in every dark cloud, there is always a silver lining in Jesus Christ.


January 3, 2021: Epiphany Sunday

Led by Dreams

Texts: Jeremiah 31:1-4, and Matthew 2:13-23,

      Joseph and Mary faced one hardship after another as they ushered in God’s son into the world. God came to them through dreams. They got up and went where the dreams told them to go. As we begin 2021, we need to be led by the dream of what things could be, a vision from God that grounds us in hope and faithfulness of God.
