Questions for the week
Describe a time when you’ve said all the right things, but been completely wrong?
Read Mark 9:14-29. What are the disciples unable to do?
What does Jesus do? What does He say about why the disciples couldn’t do it?
How have you been mistaken about Jesus in your life? How can Jesus reorient your thinking about him through humbleness and prayer?
The President’s Equip Conference is the Florida-Georgia region's premier event for bringing church leaders together.
Bible study on October 7, 2026 explored Mark 9–10, contrasting the disciples’ pride with Jesus’ servant-king mission, and tracing themes of healing, humility, unity, radical holiness, and the call to follow.
When life falls apart, our first instinct is to try and fix it ourselves. But in the midst of our deepest exile, God speaks a better word: "I will."
We all have days we’ll never forget; when the phone rang, the diagnosis came, and everything fell apart. Jeremiah 25, points to a day of infamy just like this. But also in Gethsemane, Jesus steps right into the middle of our darkest moments to offer us a hope that nothing can uproot.
A lively Bible study traced Mark’s unfolding revelation of Jesus—from John’s beheading and the feeding signs through Peter’s confession and the Transfiguration to prayerful dependence—highlighting Jewish and Gentile symbolism, numbers (5, 7, 12, 4), the Son of Man/Son of God themes, and the call to faith, humility, and cross-shaped discipleship.
It’s incredibly easy to look at the world, point fingers, and feel secure just because we are the righteous. Jeremiah 7 shows us how God wants to uproot our pride and plant His grace.
This year was another great success, providing so many children with the bags and supplies they need for the new school year.

Jeremiah being thrown into the muddy cistern shows us why Jesus losing on the cross is the greatest news for our fragile "jars of clay."
