Hitting Home Mark 1:29-39

Jesus makes the Gospel “hit home” Question Caveat Thought Experiment

Question Where did Jesus do ministry? Mark 1: river, wilderness, seaside, synagogue, home, streets Gospel of Mark Scenes in temple/synagogue: 8 Scenes in homes: 9

Question Acts 2:46-47 “Day by day, as they spent much time together in the temple, they broke bread at home and ate their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having the good will of all the people. And day by day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved.”

Caveat The Church and the Physical Error 1: Restricting the Church, spiritual growth, and worship to a physical place. “The Church is God’s house” “This building is the Church”

Caveat The Church and the Physical Error 2: Disregarding the importance of physical place. As physical beings, we have physical needs and are affected, influenced, and shaped by our physical environment.

Thought Experiment What if we didn’t have this building? What makes Christian community? Christ: shaped by Jesus/Spirit Com: “with” Unity: “one” “A three-fold chord is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:12

Thought Experiment Is this building the table or the tablecloth?

How do we make the Gospel “hit home” for us and others?
