Jesus’ Later Galilean Ministry (Mark 3:13–6:6)

Hello everyone,

The Gospel of Mark is one of the four accounts of Jesus’ life, ministry, death, and resurrection in the New Testament. Believed to be the earliest gospel written, it presents a vivid, action-packed narrative that emphasizes Jesus as the powerful yet humble Son of God who came to serve and sacrifice for humanity.

Join us as our ROC small group for our study of the Gospel of Mark.

The format at our get-togethers is very relaxed and conversational. Each Thursday we will explore a topic, then answer questions together to both understand and apply what we are learning:

• 7:00 PM: In-person and welcome
• 7:10 PM: Discussion
• 7:50 PM: Share 'n Prayer (men & women subgroups)
• 8:15 PM: Announcements and end

Come as you are--there's nothing for you to prepare each week, and you can participate at whatever level you feel comfortable.
