The Anointing
As we learn from this story in Mark 14, cherishing Jesus is incredibly important even though it often gets overlooked for other good works. And when we truly cherish and worship Jesus first, our mission should flow out of that.

No shortcuts
The temptation narratives are really about trust and obedience. Satan tempted Jesus to doubt God, to test God, and to forsake God; he tempted Jesus to fulfill God's mission by a means other than obedience, suffering, and servanthood. Do we not face the same temptations today? Like Jesus in the desert, temptations are allowed into our lives in order to examine the faithfulness and obedience of our heart. Key Passage: Luke 4:1-13

We Study Because We Love Jesus
People who love Jesus love the Church because 'she' is His body. As we all know, churches (i.e., local congregations) are made up of imperfect people...so relationships are difficult. Yet we are called to be at peace with one another. That command (it is not a suggestion but a command) raises a slew of questions. One question is, "How can someone be at peace with others if they are not at peace within their own person?"

God is....Revealer
We do not have a God who set the universe in motion, but who then ceased to be involved, leaving things to run themselves. He does not leave us with just nature to draw conclusions about him. No, he has sent his living word, Jesus to save us from sin and death, he has provides us with his written word, the Bible and has mandated all of us to proclaim that word, to be prophetic when he chooses to reveal to us. And through that revelation God wants us to know himself, to know his plan for the world, but most of all to know that he cares for us personally.
