Yesterday we studied Mark 12:35-44 in a sermon entitled Jesus Changes Everything. You can read the sermon here. This post is for a continuing conversation on what we learned from this text. Feel free to post your comments, questions, and thoughts from the text and sermon.

Chapters 11 and 12 of Mark’s Gospel highlight the authority of Jesus, first regarding his claim to divine authority followed by various tests to substantiate that claim. Now at the end of Chapter 12 the questions have ended and Jesus goes on the offensive. He demonstrates how his divine authority changes everything.
