How do I make sense of the investigative judgement and Jesus’ ministry in light of freedom from sin? Do we have a prophetic voice or am I here because of community and culture? These questions will be pursued as we journey together for a week of study with Jonathan Leonardo. In light of freedom from sin, Jonathan is excited to share with us and dialogue together for a week of community exploration on why we have a mission and message that is relevant and life giving.

AREA NEWS & EVENTS RELIVING MARK is a documentary drama filmed in Israel that examines the portrait of Jesus in the earliest written account of His life —the Gospel of Mark. This six-part series follows the fundamental question that guides Mark’s Gospel, “Who is Jesus of Nazareth?” In answering this question, the series, which is written and hosted by Dr. Carl Cosaert, Professor of Biblical Studies at Walla Walla University, carefully examines the Gospel of Mark in light of its historical context, recent archaeological discoveries, as well as Jewish customs and practices. Whether you are familiar with the story of Jesus or not, you will enjoy and learn much from this series. Go to findingmark.com. PACS AFTER HOURS!
