Mark depicts both Jesus and John the Baptist in their prophetic roles as those who disrupt and challenge the status quo. God is breaking in! His rule changes things. Mark shows us the impact of God's claims on the powerful and the weak.
This is the presentation from a Cafechurch Melbourne session on 3/9/2019 about the failures of Christian leadership, inspired by Marty Sampson's excellent questions. We looked at the failure of leadership in Scripture - starting with Saul the first King of Israel, then through a few more contemporary examples. We asked the questions: is Christian leadership failure somehow worse than the failure of secular leadership - and if so, why? We concluded by looking at what Jesus had to say about Christian leadership - and its contrast to how Saul lived his life.
Six cities among the Tribe of Levi were sprinkled strategically on both sides of the Jordan River. They were cities of refuge, sanctuary cities for those fleeing for safety from an avenging family when there was an unintentional homicide.

How to recover from post marathon sorenessDr Gary Tho
The Standard Charted Marathon Singapore 2014 was held yesterday, on the 7th Dec 2014. Now thousands and thousands of Singaporeans, and residents are feeling the after-effects of their accomplishments!
Running is great form of exercise, though after demanding strenuous exercise, we need to recover well. It is also essential to differentiate between post exercise soreness (DOMS - Delayed onset muscle soreness) and injury.
Common running injuries include neck and shoulder pain, back pain, hip, groin and hamstring injury, knee pain (runners knee), ITB syndrome, Calf pain and cramps, achilles tendonitis, and plantar fasciitis.
I received calls and SMS's about what to do about cramping and post marathon recovery. Even today, my practice members were asking what is the best way to recover. It does not matter if you run the 10km, 21 km half marathon, or the full marathon 42km - recovery is as important for everyone. Here's the recovery method that has best worked for me in the past.
Good luck! Feel Well, Play well!

This is a little book for those seeking a right understanding of Apologetics in the context of Catholicism. It is written in a simple and friendly manner. It is an attempt to look at some Catholic positions in a Biblical perspective. It is hoped that this book should appeal to the Catholic as well as to the non-Catholic readers. It is not written in a "scholarly" way, but as a plain "theological" statement with the hope of carrying conviction.

Stations of the Cross, also called Way of the Cross, a series of 14 pictures or carvings portraying events in the Passion of Christ, from his condemnation by Pontius Pilate to his entombment. The series of stations is as follows: (1) Jesus is condemned to death, (2) he is made to bear his cross, (3) he falls the first time, (4) he meets his mother, (5) Simon of Cyrene is made to bear the cross, (6) Veronica wipes Jesus’ face, (7) he falls the second time, (8) the women of Jerusalem weep over Jesus, (9) he falls the third time, (10) he is stripped of his garments, (11) he is nailed to the cross, (12) he dies on the cross, (13) he is taken down from the cross, and (14) he is placed in the sepulchre. The images are usually mounted on the inside walls of a church or chapel but may also be erected in such places as cemeteries, corridors of hospitals and religious houses, or on mountainsides.
The devotional exercise of visiting and praying in front of each of the 14 stations and meditating on the Passion of Christ stems from the practice of early Christian pilgrims who visited the scenes of the events in Jerusalem and walked the traditional route from the supposed location of Pilate’s house to Calvary. Tradition holds that Mary, the mother of Jesus, set up stone markers at her home outside Jerusalem to prayerfully retrace the steps of her son’s Passion, but the origin of the devotion in its present form is not clear. The number of stations originally observed in Jerusalem was considerably smaller than 14. In the early 16th century, Ways of the Cross were established in Europe, and the tradition of 14 stations probably derived from the best known of them, that at Leuven (1505). The Franciscans long popularized the practice, and in the 18th century they bowed to Western Christian devotional feeling and provided 14 stations in Jerusalem. The traditional stations have been recently supplemented with the Via Lucis (the Way of Light), in which the meditations focus on the resurrected Christ.
Prayerful meditation through the Stations of the Cross is especially common during Lent and on Fridays throughout the year, in commemoration of Christ’s Crucifixion on Good Friday. The devotion may be done individually or in a group and is particularly important in Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Lutheran traditions. Each station is commonly visited with some variation of the prayer “We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you. Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world” and with a reading from a relevant passage of Scripture. Both St. Francis of Assisi and St. Alphonso Maria de’ Liguori wrote devotional guides for the Stations of the Cross that remain popular.

Although this Gospel is, by some among the learned, supposed to have been really written by Nicodemus, who became a disciple of Jesus Christ, and conversed with him; others conjecture that it was a forgery towards the close of the third century by some zealous believer, who observing that there had been appeals made by the Christians of the former age, to the Acts of Pilate, but that such Acts could not be produced, imagined it would be of service to Christianity to fabricate and publish this Gospel; as it would both confirm the Christians under persecution, and convince the Heathens of the truth of the Christian religion.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

3. The elders of the
people, chief priests
and scribes,
arose and brought
Jesus before Pilate.
They brought
charges against him,
saying,
4. “We found this man
misleading our people;
He opposes the payment of
taxes to Caesar
and maintains
that he is the Christ, a king.”
5. Pilate asked him, Pilate then
“Are you the king of addressed the
the Jews?” chief priests and
He said to him in the crowds,
reply, “You say so.” “I find this man not
guilty.”
But they were
adamant and said,
6. “He is inciting the people
with his teaching throughout
all Judea, from Galilee where
he began even to here.”
7. On hearing this Pilate
asked if the man was
a Galilean;
and upon learning
that he was under
Herod’s jurisdiction,
he sent him to Herod
who was in
Jerusalem at that
time.
8. Herod was very and had been
glad to see hoping to see him

he had been He questioned him
wanting to see at length, but he
him for a long gave him no
time, for he had answer. The chief
heard about him priests and scribes,
9. and had been meanwhile,
hoping to see him stood by accusing

He questioned him Herod and his
at length, but he soldiers treated him
gave him no contemptuously
answer. The chief and mocked him,
priests and scribes,
10. and after clothing
him in resplendent
garb, he sent him
back to Pilate.
Herod and Pilate
became friends
that very day,
11. even though they
had been enemies
formerly.
Pilate then
summoned the chief
priests, the rulers,
and the people
and said to them,
12. “You brought this
man to me
and accused him of
inciting the people
to revolt.
I have conducted
my investigation in
your presence
13. and have not found
this man guilty
of the charges you
have brought
against him, nor
did Herod, for he
sent him back to
us.
14. So no capital crime
has been
committed by him.
Therefore I shall
have him flogged
and then release
him.”
15. But all together they
shouted out,
“Away with
this man!
Release
Barabbas to
us.”
25. “Daughters of
Jerusalem, do not
weep for me; weep
instead for yourselves
and for your children
for indeed, the days
are coming when
people will say,
27. At that time people
will say to the
mountains,
‘Fall upon us!’
and to the hills,
‘Cover us!’
28. for if these things are
done when the wood
is green what will
happen when it is
dry?”
Now two others, both
criminals, were led
away with him to be
executed.
29. When they came to
the place called the
Skull, they crucified
him and the
criminals there, one
on his right, the
other on his left.
Then Jesus said,
31. The people stood
by and watched;
the rulers,
meanwhile,
sneered at him
and said,
32. “He saved others, let him save
himself if he is the chosen one,
the Christ of God.”
Even the soldiers jeered at him.
As they approached to offer him wine they
called out,
33. “If you are King of the Jews,
save yourself.”
Above him there was an inscription that
read, “This is the King of the Jews.”
34. Now one of the criminals hanging there
reviled Jesus, saying,
“Are you not the Christ?
Save yourself and us.”
35. The other, however, rebuking him, said
in reply,
“Have you no fear of God,
for you are subject to the
same condemnation?
36. And indeed, we have been
condemned justly, for the
sentence we received
corresponds to our crimes,
but this man has done
nothing criminal.”
