A man asks Jesus, “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” Lars Olson explains how there’s one word that unlocks this man’s heart behind asking this question and why Jesus responds the way He does: and that word is “do.” Like this man, many Christians want a role to play in earning their salvation.

Greatness Is Not the Goal | Mark 9:30-37 with Lars Olson & Sarah Stenson 25:21

2M ago25:21

25:21

God tells the disciples to listen to Jesus. Jesus tells them exactly what’s going to happen. Yet they don’t understand. They argue about which of them is the greatest.

Baptism is an Exorcism | Mark 3:20-35 with Lars Olson 24:09
