Mark 2:13-17
Jesus continues on His ministry and is now questioned by the religious leaders as to why he eats with sinners. This is an awesome picture of seeing God coming to men in their sin to rescue them from darkness and bring them into the kingdom of his dear Son.

Food & Spirituality
Why does Jesus associate and eat with sinners? Can you imagine President Obama having a barbeque with Al Qaeda leadership? What a scandal. Jesus’ practice of sharing meals with sinners brought a lot of criticism from the religious leaders of the day. Pastor Hugo takes us to Luke 15 to show us why Jesus made a habit of eating with reprobates like you and me. Stay tuned in after the sermon to hear, Lord I Want to be a Christian/Apart from You recorded live at the Soiled Dove by Dave LeMieux & House of Soul, which was just released on their latest CD, Jazz Shaped.

The Prodigal God, Part 2
There were 2 kinds of listeners around Jesus when he told this story – the pharisees, teachers and the sinners and tax collectors. Both were unwilling listeners. In describing lost things, Jesus tells how religion addresses "paying" for sins, but Jesus holds up our inborn sin nature. Both are idolatry. Many religions say we can seek God, but Jesus says God seeks us, restores us. Do we see ourselves as lost...if not for Jesus' sacrifice? What are our attitudes toward those far from God? Is their sin worse than ours? If we want to "be Jesus," who should we spend time with?

Living a Life of Gospel Intentionality
Kaleo SDSU is taking a couple weeks to explore what it means and what it practically looks like to be intentional with the gospel through all of life. We will be investigating the book of Mark for insight into how Jesus brought the gospel to every situation and trained his disciples to do the same. We are called not to separate our life into religious, pagan, hobby, service, parenting, work and gospel intentionality but is instead a life that sees the gospel as the motivation and center of all we do.

Come As You Are
Who are the people that you would think of today as being the people who are the farthest away from God? Who would be the people that you think God would really be angry with and you would be very uncomfortable with? Think about this. Whoever those people would be for you today, that's who the tax-gathers were in Jesus' day.
