On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

Mark 3:7-19 – The Out Crowd 33:57

20 days ago33:57

At the height of His popularity, Jesus had no shortage of “followers,” but what’s the difference between a disciple and the crowd? Our text in this study is: Mark 3:7-19 Series: Who Do You Say That He Is? Gene Pensiero Jr Find the rest of the series at https://calvaryhanford.com/whodoyousay Subscribe on YouTube at: https://youtube.com/calvaryhanford Read the notes at: https://calvaryhanford.substack.com Find audio, video, and text of hundreds of other studies through the Bible at https://calvaryhanford.com/ This in-depth Bible study on Mark 3:7-19, titled “The Out Crowd,” unpacks critical distinctions between casual followers and true disciples of Jesus. Join us as we journey through the Gospel of Mark, exploring what it truly means to follow Christ in a world full of distractions and superficial interest. This sermon, rich in Christian teaching and spiritual insights, delves into the motivations of the crowds who sought Jesus for miracles versus the surrendered hearts of His chosen disciples. In this powerful message, we examine the phenomenon of “deindividuation” as seen in the large crowds surrounding Jesus, highlighting how individuals can lose themselves in groupthink. We then draw a stark contrast with the devoted disciples who, though part of the multitude, stood out as a distinct group. Discover the profound difference in their “why” and “how” of following Jesus. The crowds sought physical healing and supernatural manifestations, treating Jesus as a means to an end, a “magical miracle worker.” But what about those who genuinely sought the Messiah? This Bible study reveals the heart of true discipleship: not demanding from Jesus, but surrendering everything to His will and purpose. We analyze Mark 3:9-10, where Jesus instructs His disciples to keep a boat ready, a seemingly simple request that reveals a deeper truth about sacrificial giving and contributing to the ministry of the Gospel. Unlike the demanding crowds, true disciples freely offer their resources and lives to Christ’s kingdom work. This segment is particularly relevant for those interested in practical Christian living and understanding the cost of discipleship. The video further explores the fascinating irony of demons acknowledging Jesus as the “Son of God” (Mark 3:11-12) with more reverence than the clamoring crowds. This leads into the pivotal moment in Mark 3:13, where Jesus ascends the mountain to summon “those He wanted” – not based on human achievements or abilities, but on His sovereign grace. This section is vital for anyone exploring God’s calling and divine appointment in their lives. Delve into Mark 3:14-15 as we unpack the three profound gifts Jesus bestowed upon His chosen apostles: a new identity, intimate communion with Him, and the divine power to preach the Gospel and cast out demons. Understand that true power in Christ comes not from self-interest, but for the expansion of His kingdom, saving souls, and setting captives free. This Bible teaching emphasizes the enduring presence of Jesus in the lives of His followers and their commission to spread His message. Finally, we meticulously examine the diverse group of the Twelve (Mark 3:16-19), from Simon Peter, James and John (the “Sons of Thunder”), to Judas Iscariot. This segment offers a unique opportunity for self-reflection and spiritual evaluation. Are we like Thomas, cynical and needing tangible proof? Or perhaps like Philip, eager to bring others to Jesus? This sermon encourages viewers to assess their own discipleship against the examples of Jesus’ closest followers, inviting them to conform to Christ’s image. This powerful Bible study is perfect for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Gospel of Mark, Christian theology, and what it truly means to follow Jesus. Whether you’re interested in Bible prophecy, Christian spirituality, or looking for Calvary Chapel sermons, this video provides rich, exegetical teaching to strengthen your faith and guide your walk with the Lord. Join us in this journey of biblical truth and discover how to be an “out crowd” for Christ, living a life of surrendered discipleship.

Would you rather have a shriveled hand or a dead heart? Our text in this study is: Mark 3:1-6 Series: Who Do You Say That He Is?

In this powerful video, we delve into Mark 3:1-6, a pivotal passage that reveals the growing conflict between Jesus Christ and the religious leaders of His time. The title of this message is “Mark 3:1-6 – Every Rule You Break, We’ll Be Watching You,” and it unpacks the profound truths about obedience, faith, and the condition of the human heart. Are you looking to deepen your understanding of the Bible? Are you interested in learning more about Jesus and Christian teachings? Do you find value in in-depth Bible studies and insightful sermons? If so, you’ve come to the right place. This video is specifically crafted for individuals seeking to study the Bible, explore Christianity, and connect with the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. This message comes from a Calvary Chapel perspective, offering a verse-by-verse exploration of Scripture. In Mark chapter 3, verses 1 through 6, we witness Jesus entering the synagogue on the Sabbath. There, He encounters a man with a shriveled hand, presenting a stark contrast between physical ailment and spiritual hardness. This passage is the culmination of five consecutive accounts in Mark that illustrate the escalating tension between Jesus and those who opposed His message and miracles. We explore the historical context of the synagogue, its role in Jewish life, and how it differed from Temple worship. Understanding this background provides crucial insight into the setting of this significant encounter. Despite facing opposition, Jesus consistently attended these gatherings, demonstrating patience and grace. This serves as a powerful reminder for us today regarding the importance of gathering with God’s people, even amidst imperfections. The focus of the religious leaders was not on worship or learning from Jesus, whose fame as a Rabbi and miracle worker was widespread. Instead, they were intently watching Him, seeking an opportunity to accuse Him if He were to heal on the Sabbath. Their hearts were hardened, unwilling to accept the works of Jesus, mirroring a spiritual paralysis far more severe than the man’s physical condition. This Bible study delves into the question Jesus poses: “Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” This powerful inquiry challenges their rigid interpretations of the Law and exposes the true condition of their hearts. Their silence in response speaks volumes about their inability to reconcile their traditions with the compassion and power of God. We examine Jesus’ reaction – His anger and grief over the hardness of their hearts. This reveals the deep emotional investment God has in our lives and our spiritual well-being. In contrast, the man with the withered hand demonstrates faith and obedience when Jesus commands him to stretch it out, resulting in immediate restoration. This sermon emphasizes that the core issue is always the heart. Will we allow God to transform our hearts of stone into hearts of flesh? Are we willing to be open to new directives from the Lord, even within the unchanging essentials of doctrine? We consider the dangers of becoming so entrenched in our understanding that we become unwilling to hear God’s present leading. The passage concludes with the Pharisees plotting with the Herodians to kill Jesus, highlighting the extreme lengths to which hardened hearts will go. This dramatic contrast between healing and hatred underscores the critical choice we all face in responding to Jesus Christ. This Bible teaching encourages viewers to examine their own hearts and their reasons for gathering as believers. Are we watching for tradition, or are we expectant that God will work in our lives and through us? Are we open to the restoration that comes through faith and obedience?

In this verse-by-verse expository study, we explore how Jesus served tirelessly, healed the sick, cast out demons, and prioritized preaching the Gospel above all else.
