September 4
Introduction
Mark 6:1–13: After preaching and healing people throughout Galilee, Jesus returns to Nazareth, his hometown, but is rejected by the people there. He then commissions the twelve disciples, giving them authority to cast out demons.
Today’s Key Verse: Mark 6:12
[The disciples] went out and preached that people should turn away from their sins.
Reflect
Why did the people in Jesus’s hometown reject him? Are there people today who are rejected for preaching the Good News? In what ways can communities of faith affirm and support those among them who engage in public ministry? What instructions did Jesus give his disciples? What were they able to do?
Pray
You have called me, Lord Jesus, to follow you. Help me to be a bold witness for you and tell others about your saving love. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Mark 7:1–13: The religious leaders question Jesus about ritual purity.
