Mark 6:5-6

Just believe… in the power of the Holy Spirit in us to enable us to do what we cannot do on our own.

Mark’s Gospel is unique. It is not a biography of Jesus, like Matthew or Luke, for it does not dwell on Jesus’ family history or career. Instead, this Gospel is a record of Jesus’ actions and achievements. It presents Jesus as a Savior-King, who conquers demons, disease, and death.

God is able!

Mark 6:5-6

⁵⁸ Now He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
