Proper 5
Mark 3.20-35Following the footsteps
Seven weeks in which we explore who Mark’s Jesus is and ask what it means to become his apprentice.
Week 1: Doing the will of God
In today’s Gospel reading we find Jesus facing challenges on two fronts: the hostile scribes and his puzzled and worried family. At the heart of his response is a concern with discerning and doing the will of God.
This week's reading, Mark 3.20-35, provides us with an opportunity to:
- discover Jesus’ understanding of family (AAA & CYP)
- see that disciples are people who do the will of God (AAA & CYP).
These resources were first published in Issue 59 May/June 2012.
