Plain Ole Jesus – Mark 6:1-6 (pt. 1)
Introduction (v. 1): Sometimes it is very easy to get caught up in the everyday routines of life, so caught up that we take things for granted. Whether it is having 3 meals a day, a beautiful sunrise, or the love of our family, we all have a tendency take things for granted. Unfortunately the same thing is true when it comes to Jesus. Because we are so familiar with things about Jesus we often take them for granted. In fact, some people are so familiar with what they think Jesus is that they are unwilling to accept who Jesus really is. This is the problem that we are going to see as we look at Mark 6:1-6:

Thus discouragements, properly sustained and carefully improved, become our most fruitful sources of eventual encouragement…. Charles Bridges The Christian Ministry p. 17 Sometimes the “eventual” part of this seems as if it will never arrive, however it is usually a lot closer than we think. Maybe not in terms of an actual change in our situation, but certainly in terms of a sanctifying effect on our attitude.

Book Review: The Word of God in English
Usually I try and keep the book reviews that I do on this blog limited to newer books, or books that a lot of people have not already written on. However, today I am breaking the rules. Today I want to take a look at The Word of God in English by Leland Ryken. I want to do this for a couple of reasons. First, I have the review on file. Second, I think it is important that we all re-think our views on English Bible translations. It is so easy to get caught up in the marketing tactics that publishers use to try and get us to by the version that they print (by the way I don’t blame them, they are trying to run a business)
