March 19, 2021 11:00 - 8 minutes - 11.8 MBMichael Campagna 21 “How long has this been happening?” Jesus asked the boy’s father.

But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. 36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?
Mark 7:5-8
March 16, 2021 11:00 - 7 minutes - 9.96 MBDoug Musso 5 So the Pharisees and teachers of religious law asked him, “Why don’t your disciples follow our age-old tradition? They eat without first performing the hand-washing ceremony.” 6 Jesus replied, “You hypocrites!
