The Gospel of Mark challenges the expected ideal of the Messiah-not a conquering king or a wish-granting genie, but rather a man of sorrows and a suffering servant.
This short yet impactful account of Jesus' life reveals the character of the One who came to save us. Jesus mourned the brokenness around Him: the sickness, the pain, the hardness of heart. He grew angry at the sin of those who led His sheep astray. He was the One who came not to be served, but to serve. He came to prove the faithfulness of God and provide unshakeable hope as we walk through hardships.
Jesus was not what they were expecting; He was better. And that's good news!
