    The willful unbelief of the Pharisees disturbed the Lord to the depths of His spirit.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: People refuse to believe that which they don’t want to believe, in spite of evidence.

    How sin limits the power of God in our lives

    To Handcuff the Power of God Mark 8:14-21 (Prayer) A recurring theme of the bible is that only those who would dare to trust God with their whole hearts will see the power of God manifested in their circumstances. Once there was a man named Moses who was called by a burning bush on ...read more

    The disciples had allowed themselves to become so distracted that they missed the message Jesus was trying to give to them. Sometimes we allow the same thing to happen in our lives.

    According to the president of the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety 1.2 million crashes a year are caused by driver distractions. Of course we all know that with the way cell phones have taken over in our society that cell phones are definitely a distraction for many drivers. But to my surprise ...read more

    Our faith in Jesus Christ progressively heals us of our spiritual blindness.

    (Note: This sermon was introduced with scene # 32 from "Traveling Light") I’ve always had a secret fear about going blind. Out of all my senses, sight would be the most difficult for me to live without. Maybe it’s because I love to read so much. I always hated those assignments in high school that ...read more

    Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees- build your faith upon the Word of God, not signs. Pay attention to the works of God in our lives.

    On Colorado’s Long Peak lie the remains of a giant 400-year-old tree. Age, storms, and avalanches couldn’t bring it down. What did? A tiny beetle you could crush under your foot. It ate right through the bark and devoured its heart. Be careful of little things. • Little attitudes; but if you ...read more

    Can the awesome presence of Jesus become too familiar? Looking to Jesus and carrying our own agenda produces problems with vision.

    Read or quote Mark 8. We are half way through Mark’s gospel today. What does Mark do for you and I as readers? Just think of the way we get to be in on all this action in Jesus’ life and ministry. We are allowed to overhear Jesus’ public and private conversations and observe the reactions of ...read more

    We’re sometimes slow to trust God even though He has always come through in the past.

    A LESSON IN TRUSTING “Be careful”, Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and that of Herod”, (Mark 8: 15). Here we have one of those recurring occasions that take place in the ministry of Jesus - the feeding of a large crowd of people. The people came from near and ...read more

    God always provides what we need, and then some left over – a surplus. But only when we live by faith.

    God’s Mentality About Money Mark 8:13-21 The loaves and fishes event teaches us a lesson on God’s provision. It is clear that the disciples never learned the lesson about God’s provision. Why? Jesus had to remind them on two different occasions. After the feeding of the FOUR thousand (and that ...read more

    Introduction: Let me ask you a question: What about your heart? Is it right with God? Notice I did not ask you about your life.

    If you want to gain true wisdom in the midst of your pain, don’t be like those who WON’T SEE, and don’t be like those who CAN’T SEE. Instead, be like those who DO SEE, because they let Jesus touch them not just once, but as many times as it takes.

    A businessman was late for an important meeting and couldn’t find a parking space. As he frantically circled the block, the man got so desperate that he decided to pray.
