In the Gospel of Mark, we see Jesus has an intense, emotional reaction when in Jerusalem for the Jewish festival of Passover. See, in Jesus’ day, the Temple was the place where Jewish people could come to be close to God and worship Him. However, instead of being a center for religious life, the Temple had become corrupt; It became a shopping mall where people were exchanging money and bargaining with each other. This is why Jesus had righteous anger - and it even triggered Him to overturn tables!

In this message from Liquid Church, Pastor Tim Lucas asks us to make this Bible lesson personal: What tables need overturning in our own lives? What is distracting you from getting close to God and worshipping Him with your whole heart? This display of Jesus’ righteous anger shows us that he cared enough about our faith to clear a path for all to be with God.

This message is the introduction to Liquid Church’s 8-week Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Groups Series. Don’t settle for a superficial faith that skims the surface - dive deeper in community to discover the story God’s writing with your life!
