Hope Downtown Minneapolis Sermons

We are not as clear on God as we think we are. In Mark 8, Peter confesses Jesus as the Christ and then immediately pushes back on the very mission that defines him. This passage exposes how we misunderstand God, avoid suffering, and try to secure our own lives, and invites us to find life instead in the One who gave his life for us.

Series: The Gospel of Mark
