The Thunder Blunder (Eating Scripture)

Eating Mark 10: 35-45

This whole arc in Mark has been about discipleship; about following Jesus where He is going. Which is Jerusalem and death. And then resurrection.

After Jesus foretells His death for the third time, we have this third epic fail. And it is a doozy.

Unfortunately for us, even though we recognize half of the problem, we aren’t likely to even notice the other half. Perhaps the more important half. The half Jesus is more interested in. The half that deals with what kind of leaders these disciples are.

Eating Scripture is a short video series in which we explore the juicy and the crunchy in this week’s gospel in four minutes or fewer.
