Be honest.

Do you ever get the feeling that Jesus would never choose to hang out in the places we’ve built for him? Do you ever feel like Jesus’ message of radical love, mercy and forgiveness has been drowned out by the voices of judgment, condemnation, and stagnant ritualistic religion? Do you ever get the sense that the church was never meant to be about helping itself, but about helping the world? Do you ever get the nagging feeling that Jesus never intended the church to be comfortable and controlled, but instead an untamable movement that challenges the way things have always been done? Have you ever longed to be a part of a community that isn’t afraid to experience God in new and creative ways? (Yeah, us too.)

As you read the first chapter of the gospel of Mark this week, convince your mind that these few paragraphs are the only words that you will ever read about Jesus. Ever. Feel free to comment several times during the week. Write down whatever observations come to your mind – no matter how insignificant you may think it is. Let's use this to encourage, inspire and challenge one another so we can look more like the One we claim follow.

Just as a reminder the 3 questions are:
1. What is the author trying to tell us about Jesus?
2. How can this transform our everyday life?
3. What does this mean for the greenroom?
