Mark 1:9-15
A Time to Wake Up

Jesus breaks into our world to announce the Good News (not the Bad News!) that the kingdom of God is drawing near. He invites us to change our attitude from one of pessimism to one of hope and our lifestyle from one of self-centeredness to a concern for the other. As we make these changes (“repent and believe”) Jesus promises to travel with us so we can live with confidence, trust in his care, and the assurance that we share in the eternal life of God’s invigorating presence.
