Welcome to our new project, the Daily Bible Devotional. The goal is to help you understand and apply

0:09.6

scripture as you go through a New Testament Bible read five days a week, Monday through Friday,

0:15.5

as we move from Matthew straight through to Revelation. In under four minutes each morning, we will recap the chapter,

0:22.8

make some application, present thought questions for the day, and offer a prayer together.

0:28.4

I'm excited about exploring God's Word with you, so let's get started.

0:34.1

Welcome back. Let's spend some time discussing Mark chapter two together today.

0:39.0

application from this text. Amid the Pharisees' fault-finding mission is a series of beautiful

1:37.0

moments with Jesus. The lame man had friends willing to work to get him to Jesus, resulting in

1:43.1

Jesus rewarding their faith with forgiveness of

1:45.2

sins. Matthew is called to Christ and organizes a dinner so that others may know him. Jesus is willing and

1:51.9

says, quote, I did not come to call the righteous, but the sinners. This is a time of celebration,

1:57.7

as he points out to John's followers. We live in a time like this, amplified by the
