Verse of the Day September 28

We begin our new series Reimagining the Church.

Each week, we’ll explore a different New Testament image or metaphor for being disciples of Christ and the church and we begin this week with the Gospel of Mark. Mark is the oldest gospel, the first to be written, and in it Jesus calls his followers to be disciples of the cross. This was not easy for the first disciples of Jesus nor for the households of faith to whom Mark was initially speaking, and it isn’t easy for us today.

Today’s reading is Mark 15:33-39, Truly this man was God’s Son!

The Verse of the Day is Mark 15:39,

Now when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was God’s Son!”
