If you would like a more in-depth teaching on Mark 13, you can listen to podcast sermons of Rev. Colleen Hurley-Bates from the Free Methodist Church of Santa Barbara. She has 5 sermons on Mark 13 starting on January 13 and going through February 17. You can find them on a podcast app on your phone or here. Day 1: Read Reset Instructions and Day 1: Desire. Day 2: Read Reset Day 2: Decide. Day 3: Read Reset Day 3: Reach. Day 4: Read Reset Day 4: Fight. Remember to look at the discussion questions for each day located at the back of the book. If you are in a Reset small group, those will be the starting point for group conversation. If you do not have the book, please let us know, and we will help you get one.

What do you do when you aren’t sure what God wants you to do? A couple of weeks ago and Sunday, Pastor Joanna talked about 8 things you can do when you don’t know what to do--all from Mark 9. Below is a list of other scriptures about those 8 things. This week, take time to look up some of these scriptures and ask God how you might put at least one of these into practice in a new way in your life.
Questions to ask as you read each scripture: What does this Scripture mean? What is God saying to me through this Scripture? What might God be asking me to do through this Scripture? If one scripture specifically speaks to you, write it on a card and post it somewhere to remind you of God’s word to you. Listen to and download the full sermon here:
5 Day Devotional Day 1: Read all of Mark 10. Feel how the individual stories flow together instead of seeing them all separately. Feel the excitement of all that is happening. Think about what someone who is observing Jesus do and say all these things might be thinking. What words would you use to describe Jesus from this chapter? The next 4 days read these small sections of Mark 10 and each day answer the 4 questions following. Day 2: Mark 10:1-16 Day 3: Mark 10:17-31 Day 4: Mark 10:32-45 Day 5: Mark 10:46-52
1. What do I learn about Jesus? Nini nimejifunza kuhusu Yesu? 2. What do I learn about people? Nini nimejifunza kuhusu watu? 3. Now what? What might Jesus be saying to you through these verses? Sasa je? (Ni nini Mungu ananizungumuzia kwa neno hili? Namna haya yapata na maisha yangu?) 4. Who can I tell about what I learned? Ni nani nawez kueleza haya nilyojifunza kwa juma hii? Try something different: If you have a smartphone, you can download the YouVersion Bible app. Not only does this app give you many different versions of the Bible to read and compare, but it also has the Bible in many languages...including Kiswahili. AND many of the versions have audio as well! So you can drive and listen, walk and listen, or do dishes and listen. It’s a great way to get God’s word into your heart and mind. In English we like the Common English Bible (CEB) and New Living Translation (NLT). NLT has audio. In Kiswahili we like the Biblia Habari Njema (BHN) version which uses different voices, music, and sounds. Listen to and download the full sermon here:
