Gospel of St. Mark
A prominent theme in the Gospel of St. Mark is the divine authority of Jesus of Nazareth. While Moses was a prophet who spoke from a personal experience of God, he promised a great prophet who would be Jesus himself. He is the one empowered by his Father to be the Messiah; whose teaching reached into people’s hearts and caused them to turn toward God. Even“unclean spirits” responded to him. Stewards allow the teachings of Jesus Christ to touch them and transform their lives.
Do we recognize the authority of Jesus to touch us each day?
Do we give Christ the opportunity to transform us?
