We’re now just over 1/12 through the year – time flies when you’re having fun! If you set yourself goals for this year, how are they going? Have you done anything towards them yet?
At Evesham Baptist Church we are still developing lots of plans for the year, but have kicked off a series of reflections on Mark’s Gospel which we are looking at as part of our regular church services up to Easter. Mark is the shortest of the four Gospels in the New Testament of the bible, presenting a fast-paced overview of the life and teachings of Jesus, as well as his death and resurrection. Looking at the Gospel of Mark, we are focusing on Jesus’ power, his compassion and the cross – and what these things mean for us in our day to day lives.
One of the areas we’ve already covered is how Jesus was there for everyone – the rich, the poor, the disadvantaged, the sick, those seeking forgiveness, and the everyday people. The call to follow him was universal. Mark’s Gospel shows how Jesus stood out from the crowd and challenged the thinking of the day. Wherever you are on your journey of faith, we’d love you to join us as we continue to explore the life and teaching of Jesus.
If you would like to catch up with the areas we’ve covered so far, you can find a recording of the messages within the ‘sermons’ section of our website – or for easy reference use the links below. So far we have looked at:
Why not come along on a Sunday and find out more? Wherever you are in your life, you can be assured of a warm welcome. You don’t need to be familiar with church protocols or traditions – we are very informal and a friendly bunch. Our Sunday services are at 10.30am and finish by 12pm with tea, coffee and cakes. Come and see for yourself.
